Linda Coggan
Attachment-focused, practical therapy for everyday struggles
About Linda
Linda Coggan uses an attachment-based and client-centred approach to help people feel understood and respected. She blends practical techniques with calm, non-judgemental listening to support clearer thinking and steadier emotions. Linda is a BACP therapist and has 18 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
She commonly helps people who are managing stress and anxiety, grief and loss, low mood and relationship difficulties. She also supports those working through parenting challenges, sleep and eating problems, and coping with major life changes.
Background and approach
ADHD, attachment concerns and trauma are additional areas she focuses on. In sessions Linda keeps language straightforward. She helps people name what is troubling them and spot small changes that make life easier.
Techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness are used alongside trauma-focused work when that fits the situation. Her client-centred stance means she follows each person’s pace. The aim is to build practical skills and clearer patterns of thinking, while also attending to emotional needs rooted in past relationships.
The therapist encourages people to try small experiments between sessions to test new ways of coping. Linda makes space for difficult feelings and helps people sort through them without blame. She frames progress as gradual and personalised.
People who want steady support for everyday struggles and deeper emotional wounds may find her approach helpful.

How therapy approaches adapt to online care
Attachment-based work helps people understand how early relationships affect current feelings and reactions. Online sessions can be used to notice patterns in relationships and practise new ways of relating in everyday life. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours through simple, structured exercises that translate well to remote formats. Mindfulness-based techniques teach attention and grounding skills that are easy to try during a phone call or brief text check-in.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk through goals and preferences and suggest options that fit the issues you bring. Together you can try an approach for a few sessions and adjust if something does not feel effective.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you use facial cues and tone when that helps the work. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be useful when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat or text sessions allow short check-ins, written reflections and easier scheduling around work or family demands. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to make therapy more accessible and easier to fit into everyday life.
