Linda Flynn, LCSW

Linda Flynn is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) practicing in Kentucky with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on recovery from narcissistic abuse, addiction, depression, and related relationship trauma. Linda helps individuals rebuild trust in themselves and regain emotional steadiness after long-term invalidating relationships.

Her work addresses complex relational harm such as gaslighting and emotional manipulation. She talks with people about how patterns of control affect mood, behavior, and relationships. In addiction recovery she looks at the emotional wounds that often underlie substance use and helps people build practical coping skills.

Linda draws from attachment-based work to look at how early and close relationships shape current responses to stress and intimacy. She also uses elements of cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and dialectical behavior therapy skills to manage intense emotions and reduce impulsive reactions.

Sessions are collaborative and strengths-focused. She helps people name what matters, practice new ways of relating, and set small, achievable steps toward steadier functioning. That might include communication skills, boundaries, or emotion regulation techniques.

Clients commonly bring struggles with parenting, family strain, anxiety, grief, eating concerns, or career stress. Linda also supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image, and challenges tied to aging. The emphasis is practical work that connects daily life to long-term healing.
