About Linda

Linda Boffo is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, intimacy-related issues, and low self-esteem. She also works with issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, caregiver strain, codependency, commitment and communication problems, and challenges linked to separation, domestic violence and disaster-related stress. Sessions are offered in English and Italian and take place in the United Kingdom.

Linda follows a psychodynamic approach that looks at how past experiences shape present feelings and patterns. She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about what matters to them. The work often involves noticing repeated patterns, understanding early relationships, and making sense of strong emotions.

Her sessions aim to help people understand the roots of their reactions rather than only treating surface symptoms. Conversations may cover family of origin issues, attachment wounds, and the ways those histories affect current relationships and intimacy. Linda adapts the pace to each person and focuses on clear, practical insight that can be used day to day.

With three years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Linda brings a reflective and steady approach to therapeutic work. She invites clients to take the first step when they feel ready and supports them through the early stages of therapy.

How psychodynamic work adapts to online therapy

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how past relationships and early experiences shape how someone feels and behaves today. In practice this means noticing repeated patterns, discussing key memories, and reflecting on emotional responses to improve self-understanding. This approach can help with persistent anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, and difficulties linked to family of origin or attachment wounds.

Another useful strand is a conversational, exploratory style that encourages people to talk freely about their inner life. This helps bring unconscious patterns into awareness and supports practical change over time. These methods are conversational rather than directive and aim to build insight that people can apply in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together what feels most helpful for the person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process may involve adjusting the pace, trying focused conversations about relationship patterns, or working through difficult feelings at a steadier tempo.

The practical advantages of online therapy are that it can fit more easily into busy schedules and reduce travel time. It can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins around work breaks or to maintain continuity when life is disrupted.
