I’m Linda Milewski, a Licensed Clinical Therapist and addiction specialist of 20 years. I hold a Masters in Social Work (MSW) and am trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Non Violent Communication (NVC), Trauma-informed Care and Awareness, Tibetan Sound Bowl Healing, as well as Mindfulness practices. Additionally, I hold international certifications in addiction, Employee Assistance Program, and Sober Coaching.
After nearly two decades in inpatient psychiatric units, recovery facilities, mental health agencies, and wellness centers, I have helped stabilize many clients suffering from crisis, addiction, trauma, mood disorders and stress responses to various types of trauma. I developed a keen interest in various types of symptoms that create behaviors most would consider detrimental to their lives.
As I travelled extensively internationally, delving deeper into the causes of suffering, I began to understand more deeply what (in the Buddhist context), “suffering” means and how we can heal from it. I began looking at the client as a “whole organism” by exploring how the body and its nervous system becomes severely compromised over time stemming from chronic stress. I have learned that when the body is relaxed through certain techniques, there is no room for stress or trauma to be held. Through regulating the body and nervous system, we create a safe and calm therapeutic space from which to find creative and authentic solutions to our daily challenges. I believe that once the body feels safe, we are supported to make deep and life-changing shifts.
Non Violent Communication (NVC) is important to me. This modality supports us to speak authentically from the heart, tying in beautifully with mindfulness practices, trauma awareness and the regulation of emotions through somatic work. This method also supports us to set boundaries in ways that are compassionate for ourselves and others, enabling us to foster deeper, more authentic connection.
My approach with each client is to provide support, accountability, and structure that honors and helps clients to step out into post traumatic growth. Through use of a range of techniques, tools and therapeutic approaches, I see transformations in my clients as they experience a strong feeling of overall safety and well being.
I look forward to hearing from you and going on this journey of healing and self discovery with you!

I am so throughly enjoying my sessions with Linda. She listens when I talk and has given me tools to use in my thinking and my communication which were primary concerns for me. She has such an eclectic knowledge base to advise from. I wish my sessions could be longer every single time I talk to her. I always walk away from each session feeling empowered and like I’ve learned something new. I look forward to our sessions and immediately book my next one once we’re finished. I can’t wait to see the next set of tools Linda provides as we continue on this journey.

Over the past couple years, Linda has helped completely transform my mental outlook. Without Linda, I couldn’t have built the proper coping mechanisms necessary to excel in my career and personal relationships. I truly couldn’t be more thankful. I’ve developed/matured as a person more in the past two years than at any point in my entire adult life. Could not give a more glowing recommendation!

Linda has been great. Very responsible and she checks on my regularly. She also provides me with tools to use throughout the week.

My therapist is great and has been a key part of my personal growth.
As I have said in the past, I find it particularly interesting that these frequent reviews focus solely on the performance of my therapist, and not the company or layout of the service you have provided... because it does have faults.
Hopefully you will make an effort to investigate more.
