About me

Hello, I am Dr. Linda F. Pendleton, MSW, LCSW. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Mississippi. I earned my Master degree in Social Work at the University of Southern Mississippi and my Doctorate degree (PhD) in the Philosophy of Social Work. I began my training in 1990, under a well-known therapist and in 2011, I started my private practice. I have over 30 years of experience in the state of Mississippi.

I provide psychotherapy to children, adolescents, young adults, couples, veterans and the geriatric community. I have extensive training in a range of modalities including, cognitive behavioral therapy, strength-based coaching, and family-therapy. I am an educator to graduate and doctorate students who are pursuing their goal of becoming therapists themselves.

I am passionate about cooking and baking for my family and friends. I am an avid football fan and enjoy all music genres. I am zealous about exercising in doors and outside.

I look forward to guiding you in a discovery of seeking your best life, one step at a time.

I appreciate Dr. Pendleton, reaching out to me when I have been radio silent for more than a couple days. Living in a bit of a tricky situation with my son as he lives with schizoaffective disorder, and I am desperately trying to learn new skills to navigate this reality.

Dr Pendleton is a lifesaver literally.
She makes you confront your reality with a good sense of humour, lovingly and in a non- judgmental manner.
I’m blessed she turned out to be my therapist. God certainly knew what he was doing when that happened!

Honestly, Dr L Pendleton is an incredible woman, who is kind hearted, approachable and caring. I have had vast improvements in my mental health and sense of self every since I had my sessions with her. Thank heavens for Dr Pendleton.

Getting motivating messages in between my sessions with Dr. Pendleton reminds me that I am a priority to her and not just another number. I greatly appreciate her.
