About Linda
MN Psychologist Linda Thompson has 28 years of clinical experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, compassion fatigue, and major life changes.
Linda works from the view that each person knows their story and brings strengths to address what feels overwhelming. She encourages practical steps in sessions and focuses on clear communication about goals. Sessions are framed around what the client wants to address now and next.
In practice she listens for patterns that keep problems active and talks through actionable ways to change them. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to support coping, manage symptoms, and improve communication. Discussions include what has and hasn’t worked before, and small experiments to test new approaches.
Linda has worked in Minnesota settings for nearly three decades and brings steady clinical experience to complex problems such as sexual assault, forgiveness work, and compassion fatigue. She supports people coping with loss and helps them find manageable ways to carry on daily responsibilities.
People can expect straightforward sessions that identify concrete steps and homework when useful. The focus is on improving day-to-day functioning, reducing distress, and building practical skills for relationships and self-care.

How evidence-based approaches translate to remote work
Linda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide practical work. One approach emphasizes breaking problems into manageable parts and testing small behavioral changes to see what helps. This method is useful for anxiety, stress management, and improving day-to-day routines.Another approach focuses on processing traumatic events and related reactions through structured conversations and skill building. It helps people who are dealing with trauma, sexual assault histories, or grief to reduce distress and regain more control over daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss what seems most helpful based on the person’s goals, current difficulties, and preferences, and will adjust methods as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific session formats. Confirm the therapist's supported formats before booking to know whether sessions are by video, phone, or in person. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so people can attend between other responsibilities.
