About Lynda
She focuses on everyday struggles such as relationship strain, parenting stress, sleep and eating concerns, and managing mood conditions like bipolar disorder. Sexual dysfunction is listed among her areas of focus. Dr. Cokuslu also supports people facing trauma, addiction, grief, and career-related strain.
Her sessions emphasize clear goals and simple skills. She uses methods that help clients notice unhelpful patterns, try new behaviors, and build stronger emotional habits. Conversations are paced to the person’s needs, mixing practical strategies with space to reflect.
Dr. Cokuslu draws on several evidence-based approaches to shape treatment. She blends acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive behavioral tools and client-centered listening. Dialectical and emotionally-focused strategies are added as needed to address intense emotions and relationship patterns.
People who want straightforward guidance and practical tools tend to fit well with her approach. She encourages realistic steps, steady progress, and attention to values and meaning. To begin, people follow the platform’s Start Therapy flow and schedule sessions once a match is made.
How her approaches work for online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and making changes that matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior and testing new ways of responding. It is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress management. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotions and improving how people relate to important others. It can help with strong emotional reactions and relationship patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit the person’s needs. Choices are revisited over time to make sure the plan stays helpful and realistic.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when that works better. They also make it simpler to continue care through life changes while keeping a consistent schedule.
