About Lindsay

Dr. Lindsay Ghannam is an LPC and LMHC practicing in Florida with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, sleep problems, parenting concerns, depression, relationship and family matters, trauma and grief. Her listed focus areas also include ADHD, blended family issues, attachment concerns, and caregiving stress.

She prefers a practical, person-focused way of working. Sessions often involve talking through what feels most pressing, learning hands-on skills for daily life, and trying small behavioral changes that make routines easier. She draws from several approaches to shape sessions so they fit the problem at hand.

Her background includes work as a crisis intervention specialist, addictions clinician, research analyst, and private practice counselor. She also holds a Doctor of Education in counseling and has experience supporting people who face anxiety and related concerns.

Dr. Ghannam uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, among other approaches, to address thoughts, behaviors, and values. Attachment-based ideas inform work around relationships and family patterns.

Outside clinical work she is interested in natural remedies and practical lifestyle supports for mood and stress. She is a parent and speaks from personal experience about navigating family life while managing mental health demands.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, stress, and life changes by shifting focus from symptom control to meaningful action.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches practical techniques to change those patterns. It is useful for sleep problems, anxiety, depression, and daily routines that need adjusting.

Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to relationship patterns and how early bonds shape current reactions. This approach can be helpful when navigating blended household roles, parenting tensions, or loyalty conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick techniques that match their goals, values, and everyday constraints. Plans can shift as progress and preferences become clearer.

Confirm the therapist's current session formats before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins if needed, and avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can use different tools to support progress, and the focus remains on practical steps to improve day-to-day functioning.
