Linda Merck has helped me with my goals and progression towards a healthier mindset. In the time I’ve had with Linda Merck I’ve learned boundaries, positive self talk, understanding my past trauma, my attachment styles, and understanding why the attachment styles came to be and what effects them positively and negatively. Overall I’ve learned a lot in just two months and some change, I highly recommend her expertise to anyone looking for help with the self reflection and deep personal development that one may be embarking on. If you’re willing to get right to work so is she.

Couldn't ask for anyone better. She was able to understand where I was coming from and it made me feel less alone

I have had bad experiences with therapy before and I was nervous about what I get out of this experience, but Linda erased all of that from the first session. She’s honest and helpful without making me feel embarrassed or judged. She’s knowledgeable and shows true concern. Most of all, I have never felt so heard in all my life as I do when I speak with her. I would recommend her 100% of the time to anyone looking for help.
