About Linda
Linda Boffo is a BACP registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of practice. She works with people feeling stuck or overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and struggles with self-esteem. She also supports work on family and family-of-origin problems, abandonment and attachment concerns, and difficulties around commitment and codependency.
Her way of working is rooted in psychodynamic ideas, focusing on how past experiences and repeated patterns affect present behaviour. Sessions involve talking through thoughts and feelings to notice repeating themes. Linda aims to help people understand where their reactions come from so they can make different choices in daily life.
Linda is comfortable addressing topics that many find hard to talk about, including BDSM, kink and alternative sex culture, body image, caregiver stress, and the effects of separation or domestic violence. She makes space for practical concerns as well as deeper emotional material. Sessions are offered in English and Italian depending on the client’s preference.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside psychodynamic work to support clearer thinking and better emotional regulation. The therapist asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire, then schedule a first session to discuss goals. Sessions use a subscription payment that can be cancelled at any time and costs vary with location.
For people weighing whether to start, Linda encourages a first meeting to see how talking feels and whether this approach fits the issue at hand.
How online sessions use psychodynamic and evidence-based techniques
Linda integrates psychodynamic work with evidence-based techniques. Psychodynamic work involves talking about past experiences and repeated relationship patterns to make them clearer and less automatic. This can help when someone notices the same conflicts or feelings reappearing in new situations.She also uses evidence-based methods to address symptoms such as anxiety and low mood. These techniques focus on practical skills for managing emotions, reducing stress and improving communication. They are aimed at tasks like noticing triggers, practising new responses and improving day-to-day coping.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the collaboration. The therapist discusses what feels most useful, checks how techniques are working, and adjusts the plan with the client’s goals and preferences in mind. That way the work stays relevant to what matters now.
Please confirm the available session formats before booking. The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting meetings around work and family commitments, joining from a quieter location, and choosing shorter check-ins when time is limited. These options can make it easier to keep regular contact and to apply what is discussed in therapy to everyday life.
