About Linda

Linda Titus-Conboy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with 27 years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

She has supported people facing a wide spectrum of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief after loss, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy struggles, parenting challenges, chronic medical conditions, and issues related to addiction and bipolar disorder. Her background also includes work with topics such as chronic pain, caregiver stress, aging and geriatric matters, and adoption and foster care.

Her manner in sessions is described as warm and supportive, focused on building trust and a collaborative working relationship. She integrates evidence-informed methods including cognitive behavioral strategies, acceptance and commitment approaches, mindfulness, client-centered methods, trauma-focused work, and motivational interviewing to tailor care to each person’s concerns.

Linda emphasizes helping clients move toward greater balance, coping, and meaning in life while addressing practical problems and emotional patterns. Clients who value a thoughtful, steady therapist will find her approach blends practical tools with compassionate listening, aiming to meet each client where they are and support the changes they want to make.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Linda commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in her work. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new behavioral strategies to reduce symptoms such as anxiety, depression, or sleep problems. ACT emphasizes values-based action and acceptance skills to help people live a meaningful life despite difficult thoughts or emotions. Both approaches can be applied to concerns like stress, grieving, relationship difficulty, and coping with chronic health challenges.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Linda will work with each person to explore goals, personal preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time so the therapy fits the client's needs rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with Linda is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible and can reduce travel time. These options allow people to continue work on coping skills, mindfulness practices, and cognitive strategies from home while maintaining consistent contact with a licensed professional.
