Linda Cousens, LCPC

Linda Cousens is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) based in Maine with 22 years of experience helping people navigate life changes and emotional challenges. She has spent the last 11 years in private practice, working with individuals and families on concerns that matter most to them and tailoring treatment to each person's goals and strengths.

She holds a Master’s Degree in Counseling and a Certificate of Advanced Study, reflecting graduate-level training and additional post-master’s preparation in counseling practice. As an LCPC she brings clinical training and years of hands-on experience to each therapeutic relationship.

Linda works with a broad range of issues, including stress and anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, grief and loss, addictions, career questions, eating concerns, anger, depression, and family and LGBT-related matters. She also supports clients facing compassion fatigue and those seeking coaching-oriented work to move forward.

Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods—including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Existential perspectives—so interventions can be adapted to fit what each client needs. She focuses on collaborative, practical steps that help clients make meaningful progress toward their goals.
