LCSW, 30 years of experience
Hi All, My name is Linda, and I have a deep passion for helping folks grow to the heights they want to achieve. I have been a therapist for years, and have spent a great deal of time helping those who have experienced trauma. I love working with people and have a special place in my heart for the Arts and Music. For many years I owned a woodcraft and ceramic business and continue to keep crafts close to me. I also love music and love to play the organ, piano, and guitar. I was a non-traditional student and received my bachelor's degree in Clinical Psychology in 1996 from East Stroudsburg University, then raised my own three children for a while. I returned to school and completed my master's degree in Social Work in 2020 from Capella University. I currently hold an LCSW in PA. I have taken many additional trainings in Trauma-informed counseling, DBT, EMDR, and of course crafts/painting. Helping folks care for themselves is extremely important in life’s struggles, and sharing the heart's desires helps us all navigate the world. It is with great anticipation that I get to know the uniqueness of you in a holistic environment where we can work on reaching the heights of your passion. I hope all my folks find me supportive and comforting on their journey in life. We can do this! See you soon!
Clients can expect a lot of questions and conversation in a comfortable atmosphere so we can get to know each other.
I love doing craft groups and connecting them with therapy. It is a great way to help folks find and reach their potential. I also love to listen to your journey. It's about you!!
My dream client is one willing to work hard and fulfill their dreams.
I use many different techniques in therapy, but I believe that starting with the person in their environment and not judging or answering for them is the best place to begin. Unconditional Regard is of the utmost importance and listening to them supercedes any technique I use. You are the most important person in the room and know one knows you better than you.

I appreciate the openness :)

This was my first meeting with Linda and I was intrigued by her profile and appreciate her openness about herself as well as the ability to mirror. There was a warmness and I felt at ease, just interacting and having a conversation. She was also able to recognize things about myself that I don't normally rest on. I'm looking forward to the next steps and seeing if we will be a good fit. Certainly one of the best--- if not the best first sessions I've ever had. Thank you.

Linda is so accepting and welcoming. She listened to everything I had to say and made me feel so safe. I highly recommend Linda.
