About Kim
Kim Linde is a New York licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 17 years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship and family concerns, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting, depression, stress, anxiety, LGBT matters, and self-esteem. Kim also works with people coping with life changes and attachment or codependency patterns.
She helps people talk through relationship and family conflicts. Sessions often focus on communication, handling infidelity or separation, and coping with fertility or pregnancy-related struggles. Kim also addresses mood and panic symptoms that arise alongside relationship stress.
Her approach blends client-centered work with structured methods. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation. Emotionally-Focused Therapy and elements of the Gottman Method inform couples work and help people notice interaction patterns.
Kim tends to keep sessions practical and conversational. She helps people notice patterns such as people-pleasing or losing themselves in relationships, then tries out new ways of responding. Sessions can include skill practice, communication rehearsal, and reflecting on family of origin issues that shape current choices.
People often come when a relationship, pregnancy, or life transition has shaken their routine. Kim has a history of working with fertility challenges and postpartum mood concerns. She asks straightforward questions, listens carefully, and works with each person to set clear goals for therapy.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can clarify what matters to them; it helps when people want a respectful space to sort through feelings about relationships and family. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers practical exercises to test new ways of thinking. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) targets the emotional patterns under relationship conflicts and helps people notice and change how they respond to each other.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, what has helped before, and which methods feel most useful. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as needed based on what works in sessions.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work and family schedules. They can reduce commute time, allow for a quieter check-in during a break, or make camera-free sessions possible when that feels preferable. Licensed professionals can guide how to use skills between sessions so therapy fits into everyday life rather than adding extra steps.
