Linda King-Bronner , LCSW

Linda King-Bronner is a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of practice in New York. She helps people facing addictions, family conflict, career stress, coping with major life changes, and compassion fatigue. Her approach is grounded in respect, sensitivity, and steady support.

She prefers straightforward conversation. Sessions focus on what matters now and on practical steps clients can try between meetings. Linda adapts the pace and tools to each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Her work draws on several evidence-informed methods. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to look at patterns of thought and behavior, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and build workable habits, and attachment-oriented perspectives to understand relationship struggles. Emotionally-focused and client-centered practices shape how she listens and responds.

Clients can expect a calm, patient presence and clear goals for change. Linda supports people as they sort priorities, rebuild routines, manage stress, or change unhealthy patterns. She also addresses related concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, aging and caregiver stress, body image, chronic illness, and commitment difficulties.

Sessions are available in English and she accepts international clients. Linda tailors scheduling and communication to each person, helping them move toward steadier functioning and clearer choices.

Approaches that translate well to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters most and take small steps toward those values. It often focuses on building habits and willing action when feelings are difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and offers practical exercises to change them. It is useful for managing cravings, anxiety, and unhelpful thinking patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how past relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people try new ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. Together they will try different techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

Online formats used include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video visits allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief updates, between-session coaching, or people who prefer written communication. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into different routines.
