About Linn
Linn Aosjia is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 36 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Her work is calm and straightforward, aimed at easing what feels overwhelming right now and helping people find more steadiness over time.
Her practice is practical and person-centered. Linn listens for what matters most to each individual and then offers tools that fit their life.
Background and approach
She combines reflective conversation with hands-on practices, such as mindfulness and acceptance strategies, so people leave sessions with something to try between meetings. Rooted in Existential thinking, Linn helps people face hard questions about meaning, choice, and loss. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and hypnotherapy techniques to reduce avoidance and increase valued action.
Sessions often include brief experiments, attention training, or guided exercises tailored to a person’s needs. Linn has worked across many life stages and life transitions, including adoption and foster care issues, family of origin concerns, caregiver stress, and grief after loss. She also addresses communication problems, codependency, and the emotional impact of first responder roles and disasters.
Therapy is offered in English from California and Linn accepts international clients. She provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. People who want to begin can complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to her availability.

Online support
How Linn’s approaches translate to online therapy
Online therapy lets Linn use Existential Therapy to help people reflect on meaning, choice, and values even when they are not in the same room. That work often involves asking clear questions about priorities and experimenting with new ways of living between sessions to see what feels more authentic.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while taking actions that match personal values. ACT exercises online can include brief mindfulness practices, values sorting, and behavior experiments to try between appointments. Hypnotherapy is offered as a tool for relaxation and focused imagery to reduce avoidance and support new ways of responding to stress.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Linn will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try techniques in-session, and adjust the plan as needed. Clients are invited to give feedback so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and guided exercises, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different time zones.
