About Lynda
Dr. Lynda Cokuslu is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia. She brings nine years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life transitions.
She aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk honestly about what’s hard and begin making small changes. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside other approaches to help people understand their emotions and how those feelings affect relationships and daily life.
Background and approach
Dr. Cokuslu also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to teach practical skills for coping and decision making. Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit each person.
Conversations tend to focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, learning new ways to respond to strong emotions, and building routines that support better sleep, mood, and focus. The work often includes practical strategies for stress, addiction recovery, and managing anger. She has a broad range of focus areas, including body image, caregiving stress, chronic illness, attachment concerns, parenting strain, and career-related distress.
Her approach aims to help people build self-compassion, clearer communication, and stronger daily coping habits. People meet with her by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. The therapy model and session format are chosen together based on goals and what fits the person’s life.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and sit with their feelings so they can change how emotions shape their choices and relationships. Online sessions can be used to notice emotional patterns and practice new responses in the moment.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting difficult thoughts while clarifying values and taking committed action. In virtual sessions, clients learn exercises to work with painful thoughts and build small habits that match their values.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors by practicing new ways of thinking and acting. CBT tools translate well to remote work, with homework, tracking sheets, and skill practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and the kinds of challenges presented. This is a collaborative decision and can be adjusted over time.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let therapists observe body language and tone. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support brief updates, skill practice, or day-to-day coaching. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while keeping the focus on progress and usable skills.
