About Linnea

Linnea Borer is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) practicing in Minnesota who brings five years of clinical experience to her work. She focuses on helping people who are managing stress, anxiety, grief and loss, parenting challenges, depression, ADHD, relationship concerns, trauma and related issues.

Background and approach

Linnea centers her approach on a collaborative partnership that honors each person's knowledge of their own life while offering concrete tools and therapeutic perspectives. Her style blends evidence-informed strategies with attentive listening and respect for a client's strengths and values.

Linnea draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques and attachment-informed ideas to help clients develop coping skills, reframe difficult patterns, and strengthen current relationships. She acknowledges that beginning therapy requires courage and aims to create a steady, supportive space where people can explore changes at their own pace.

Using Evidence-Informed Approaches in Online Care

Linnea often draws from cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT offers concrete exercises and behavioral changes that can be practiced between sessions to support daily functioning.

She also incorporates attachment-based ideas that examine patterns in relationships and emotional bonds, which can be useful for understanding responses to loss, grief, or relationship strain. These perspectives aim to increase awareness of interpersonal needs and promote healthier connection strategies.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Linnea works with each person to consider goals, preferences, and life context, and adapts methods as the work progresses so clients and therapist can find the methods that fit best.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it possible to continue therapy around work or family demands and to engage in care from home or another convenient location.
