About Lindsay

Dr. Lindsay Ghannam is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 15 years of clinical experience. She works from Florida and brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to everyday struggles like anxiety, stress, sleep problems, and career concerns.

She frames work as a partnership. Sessions focus on thoughts and everyday habits that shape mood and behavior. Conversations are straightforward and aim to build small, manageable changes that fit into daily life.

Her background includes roles as a crisis intervention specialist, research analyst, addictions specialist, and private practice clinician. Those experiences shape a flexible skill set for interruptions like grief, trauma, caregiver strain, chronic illness, and compassion fatigue.

Dr. Ghannam uses several clinical approaches to guide the work, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. She also draws on attachment-focused ideas and client-centered listening to understand relationships and patterns.

Outside of clinical work she promotes natural coping strategies such as herbalism, healthy eating, and mindfulness practices. She has led radio conversations about natural approaches to anxiety and combines lifestyle ideas with talk-focused therapy to help clients move toward clearer, calmer days.

Therapeutic approaches for online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values instead of fighting uncomfortable feelings. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and getting unstuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings interact and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns; it can help with sleep problems, worry, and mood shifts. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication, and it can be useful when people want to understand relationship or family patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, daily life, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which ideas and exercises to try and adjust them as needed.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and to practice skills between meetings. It can also reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered at that time.
