About Lindsay

Dr. Lindsay Ghannam is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 15 years of clinical experience based in Florida. She works with stress, anxiety, sleep problems, parenting concerns, depression, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, career questions, and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.

She uses practical, talk-based methods that look at thoughts, behaviors, and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) appears among the approaches she uses, along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-focused work. Her style mixes problem-focused tools with time to discuss life context and priorities.

Lindsay draws on prior roles in crisis intervention, addiction services, research, and private practice. Her background includes a Doctor of Education in Counseling and prior work as a crisis intervention specialist and addictions specialist. She also holds certifications noted in her biography related to body-mind coaching and domestic violence counseling.

In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thinking and try practical changes. That might include step-by-step behavior experiments, values-based goal setting, or talking through relationship patterns rooted in attachment. She also supports people managing caregiving strain, chronic illness, or life transitions.

Her approach is conversational and structured. Clients who want clear tools for anxiety, sleep, or coping with change may find the format useful. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the online options button.

How her approaches translate to online work

CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It helps with anxiety, sleep problems, low mood, and practical day-to-day difficulties by using short exercises and behavior experiments. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes values and willingness to experience difficult feelings while committing to small, meaningful actions; this can help with stress, burnout, and motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence current communication and trust, which is useful for relationship and family concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time based on what works in practice.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday break, avoid travel time, or choose shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can use structured online sessions to assign short between-session tasks, review progress, and keep momentum while adapting methods like CBT and ACT to everyday routines.
