LCSW, 2 years of experience
New to Grow
Hello, I’m Linda, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to fostering meaningful change and personal growth through a person-centered, strengths-based approach. My style is warm, empathetic, and grounded in deep respect for your lived experience. I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and life transitions—whether you’re navigating career shifts, relationship challenges, or personal identity exploration. I work with a diverse range of clients across cultures, backgrounds, identities, and ages. My practice is inclusive and affirming, welcoming those seeking support in cultivating resilience, self-awareness, and a deeper understanding of themselves. Through active listening and collaborative dialogue, I aim to understand your unique perspective and co-create a therapeutic path that feels empowering and aligned with your values
What to Expect in Your First Session Our first session is a gentle starting point. You’ll have space to share what’s bringing you in, ask questions, and begin shaping a therapeutic rhythm that feels supportive. I’ll offer structure, transparency, and a clear sense of how we might work together. There’s no pressure to “get it right”—just a calm, respectful space to begin.
I bring a calm, intuitive presence to therapy, paired with a gift for translating complex emotions into clear, actionable insight. My work is deeply collaborative—I listen closely, reflect thoughtfully, and help clients name patterns that may have felt invisible or overwhelming. I’m especially skilled at supporting adults through transitions, grief, burnout, and identity exploration, offering structure without rigidity and empathy without judgment. What sets me apart is my ability to hold nuance while guiding clients toward meaningful change. I create spaces that are both emotionally safe and practically useful, helping you feel more regulated, empowered, and aligned with your values. My sessions are shaped by your voice, your pace, and your goals—always with the intention of helping you move forward with clarity and self-trust.
Who I’m Best Positioned to Support I’m especially attuned to supporting clients who are thoughtful, curious, and ready to explore the deeper layers of their experience—even if they’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin. You might be navigating a life transition, questioning long-held patterns, or seeking more authentic connection in your relationships. Many of my clients share a desire to feel more emotionally regulated, grounded in their values, and empowered to make meaningful change. If you’re open to reflection and collaborative growth, this space is designed for you.
