Dear Prospective Client, My name is Lina Rappoport, LMFT. I have been licensed since 2013. Originally from Ukraine I came to the US more than 20 years ago. I love to work with adults. I love meeting people from all around the world and I connect well with different cultures. In me you will find compassionate, caring, and respectful individual. I will take time to listen and together we will create a plan of action to help you feel better. We all need support these days, so don't hesitate to reach out. I can't wait to meet you. Take care.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional with a Doctorate in Clinical Social Work. I specialize in supporting women who are carrying the weight of the world—juggling responsibilities, managing emotional wounds, and trying to hold it all together. My approach is rooted in compassion, cultural sensitivity, and evidence-based practices. I create a space where women feel safe to unpack their pain, process life’s challenges, and reconnect with their inner strength. My goal is to help you move from surviving to thriving—on your terms.

I’ve been a therapist for over 15 years. I received a bachelor’s in psychology focusing on child development and a master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy. I have worked for organizations that have specialized in juvenile sex trafficking, prisoner reentry, homelessness, foster care, Christian counseling, and career planning. Through my years of working in mental health and working with so many different populations, I’ve learned that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all method. I primarily use Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Gottman Relational Therapy. However, I use techniques based on what each individual client needs at the moment. I know what it’s like to overcome fear and adversity. Being married to a first responder for over 20 years has taught me what it is like to experience tension and uncertainty while trusting in his ability to stay safe. As a parent, I know what it is like to go through life’s stages – from birth to empty nester. More importantly, life has taught me the importance of having someone you can trust in your corner. Let me be that person for you.
