I have been struggling for so long and tried so many therapists and I am so very grateful to have Linda in my life now. From the first meeting, she gave me a new perspective and explained things in a way I understood. I use the online journal provided and she gives me feedback. It's a wonderful way to have therapy. I also attend the classes and have learned so much. Attending a class is a great way to get through a bad spell. Thank you for this service.
