About Linda

Linda Skoug is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Wisconsin with 13 years of experience. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and major life changes. Her work often focuses on attachment issues and the effects of past trauma.

Linda aims to make therapy clear and practical so families and individuals can take the next step. She uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.

Background and approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different, workable behaviors. Hypnotherapy may be offered as another tool for reducing stress and accessing internal resources. Linda explains methods in straightforward terms and tailors them to the person in front of her.

Sessions address a broad set of concerns including grief, addiction, eating issues, ADHD, and career stress. She also works with matters like abandonment, adoption and foster care histories, aging issues, and dissociation. Linda focuses on concrete coping skills while helping people understand how their past affects present choices.

Her style is respectful and collaborative. She listens for patterns and then helps clients try new ways of thinking and acting. The goal is stronger self-understanding and better day-to-day functioning.

Clients meet by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Linda supports people who want practical strategies and steady emotional support as they work toward clearer relationships and calmer days.

Online support

How attachment work and CBT translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current connections and emotional reactions; online sessions can help people notice those patterns and try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought-behavior links and teaches practical skills like thought records and behavioral experiments that translate well to video or phone sessions. Hypnotherapy is used sometimes to support relaxation and access internal resources for stress reduction and habit change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods to try based on goals, comfort level, and response to early sessions. Plans can change over time as needs shift and new insights emerge.

Online therapy offers flexibility and different ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill work and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit support into busy days and to share thoughts between sessions. These options let people access care from wherever they are in Wisconsin while keeping scheduling practical and consistent.
