About Lindsay

Dr. Lindsay Ghannam is a licensed counselor with 15 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, sleep problems, parenting strain, depression, and life transitions. She holds LPC and LMHC credentials and works from a perspective that blends practical strategies with attention to personal values and relationships.

Her background includes work as a crisis intervention specialist, addictions specialist, research analyst, and private practitioner. She also has a Doctor of Education in counseling and experience as a body-mind coach and domestic violence counselor. Those roles inform a broad view of common life struggles and how they affect daily routines.

In sessions she uses clear, direct methods people can try between meetings. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people name what matters and act toward those values.

Attachment-based perspectives guide conversations about connection and communication, especially when relationship patterns cause pain. Existential ideas may appear when clients want to talk about meaning, purpose, or big life changes.

She helps people work through concerns such as grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, caregiver stress, body image, chronic illness, and career problems. Her approach often mixes coaching elements with counseling to support both symptom relief and practical life changes.

Dr. Ghannam practices in Florida and offers services in English. If you prefer working with someone who combines clinical counseling with coaching and natural-lifestyle interests, she may be a good fit.

How therapy approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without being ruled by them and then take steps toward what matters. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes where values and action matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing different behaviors to reduce symptoms. It is often used for anxiety, sleep problems, and depression. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns shape reactions and communication, which can help with relationship strain and family-related stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and preferences, and together they will try methods that fit. That collaboration may mean using CBT skills one week and ACT or attachment ideas the next, depending on progress and what feels most helpful.

Confirm available session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. In general, online therapy can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into busy days. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it possible to keep working with a licensed professional even when life is hectic or people are living in different places.
