About Lindsay
Dr. Lindsay Ghannam is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She brings 15 years of clinical experience and a practical, down-to-earth approach to helping people manage anxiety, stress, sleep problems, depression, and life transitions.
She also supports clients dealing with relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma, and work or career stress. Dr. Ghannam blends clinical skills with a focus on whole-person well-being.
Background and approach
Her background includes roles in crisis intervention, addiction support, research, and independent practice. She uses conversational, skills-based sessions that aim to reduce symptoms and build coping tools. Sessions may include work on thought patterns, values-driven action, and improving attachment and communication.
She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people change behaviors and handle difficult emotions. Dr. Ghannam also uses attachment-based and client-centered approaches to create a respectful, person-focused setting.
She listens for patterns in relationships and helps clients try new ways of connecting and responding. Her experience includes helping people with ADHD, compassion fatigue, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and body-image concerns. Parents who are worried about daily stress or sleep disruption will find short, practical strategies they can use between sessions.
She emphasizes small, doable changes over time rather than quick fixes. Her work often includes coaching-style guidance for building routines, managing overwhelm, and aligning actions with personal values. Outside of clinical work she emphasizes lifestyle factors like nutrition and mindful routines.
She speaks English and accepts international clients for online work. To begin, clients follow the platform’s matching and scheduling steps to connect and plan a first session.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Dr. Ghannam commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small actions that match those values while learning to live with difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying new behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and ease mood problems.She also draws on attachment-based and client-centered ideas to shape a supportive working relationship. Therapy is a collaborative process - she will work with each person to try approaches that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what helps most and adjust the plan over time rather than assuming one method will work for everyone.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls are useful for deeper conversational work and exercises, phone sessions can fit into a busy day and require less bandwidth, and chat or messaging are helpful for brief check-ins or ongoing coaching-style support. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, and travel while maintaining continuity of care.
