Do you have big emotions that are really hard to manage, have a hard time expressing your emotions, feel drained by unhealthy relationship patterns, navigating a major life change, struggle with triggers and guilt, break up/divorce, or just feeling anxious and overwhelmed by life. When you spend all of your energy managing everyone else's moods or trying to keep your head above water, it's easy to lose sight of who you are. My style is down to earth, engaged, and collaborative (vs just listening and validating you). I will provide you a safe space to share your story, and help you identify the patterns that keep you stuck . Together, we can learn new tools that actually work so that you can reclaim your sense of peace. I try to balance warmth and validation with honest feedback.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session together we will start with brief introductions, then explore the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up session.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I will provide a safe space for you to share your story, process your fears, gain some coping tools, and explore where you are getting stuck. It is my goal to help foster insight, awareness, growth, and empowerment so that you can begin to experience more peace and balance in your life.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I enjoy working with clients that are struggling in some aspect of life and are eager to improve but don't have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed, and anxious in life and it is holding them back from finding fulfillment in life.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I work with clients to become aware of inaccurate, unhelpful, or negative thinking patterns so that they can learn how view challenging situations clearly and respond to them in a more effective way. CBT helps to reduce negative thought cycles and unhelpful ways of reacting to situations
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
ACT is a form of therapy that helps you to identify values and explore ways they may guide your actions toward a meaning life. If also helps you learn how to accept a difficult emotion, rather then avoid or push it away.
Daialectical Behavior (DBT)
I use DBT and integrate mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, managing and tolerating stress, and learning how to regulate emotions.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I use mindfulness therapy to focus on the here and now and utilizing nonjudgmental awareness.

Patient, allowed for initial unstructured sharing from me and then brought focus back to parts to delve deeper. and put into words what i must be feeling and made sure there was time to give guidance on next steps and direction before the session ended.

I chose her randomly and I am very happy that I did. She gave me clarity & really listened to what I had to say, without judgement. She made me feel comfortable and safe, while maintaining her professionalism. She feels more like a friend than a therapist; reasons why my guards were down in our session. I truly appreciate that Linda makes me feel like she genuinely wants to help me through my situation. I look forward to our future sessions.
