About Lindsay

Dr. Lindsay Ghannam is a licensed counselor based in Florida with 15 years of experience supporting people through anxiety, stress, grief, and life transitions. She holds LPC and LMHC credentials and brings a practical, person-focused approach to sessions. She emphasizes steady progress and clear, achievable steps rather than quick fixes.

Her work often begins with listening closely to what feels most difficult right now. She uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try small, manageable changes. Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas also guide her, so sessions focus on understanding emotions and building stronger self-connection.

Dr. Ghannam combines clinical practice with a broader interest in natural approaches to wellbeing. She talks with clients about lifestyle factors like sleep, nutrition, and stress management when relevant, and she offers coaching-style support alongside counseling. The goal is clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping.

She has worked in crisis intervention, research, addiction support, and private practice, giving her a range of real-world experience. That background shapes how she tailors plans to practical life demands, whether the issue is parenting strain, workplace stress, or recovery from trauma and grief.

People who prefer a collaborative, down-to-earth style tend to fit well with her approach. She invites clients to set concrete goals and to try steps that can be measured and adjusted over time.

Approaches that guide online work and practical care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and making steady life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing different behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry and low mood. It works well for sleep problems, depression, and coping with daily stressors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, and then try methods that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted over time.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into busy lives. Online work can make it simpler to have short check-ins, avoid travel time, or choose audio-only conversations if video is difficult. The biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm available options before booking to ensure they match your needs.
