Awesome therapist! I have a lot of trouble speaking to others and talking on the phone but after ending the session I just felt relief because someone finally understood me. I felt happy and positive. I felt like she had said the things I always wanted to say.

I am incredibly thankful for my counselor. She is straightforward and never sugarcoat anything, which is exactly what I need. Every session with her brightens my day. Our time together always feels too short for everything I want to share. She creates a comfortable and inviting space where I always feel heard and cared for. This space feels genuinely safe. I am deeply grateful for her experience, willingness, skills, intelligence, humor, and more. I definitely found the right person for me.

My therapist and I have clicked from the start. She always listens, walks me through certain issues and how to move forward. She never judges and always gives good advice on tougher situations. She’s encouraged me, watched me grow through a tough time, and supported me the whole way. Very thankful for her and her support.

AlI absolutely love Linda & through the course of our therapy session I feel like she gets me. I feel like sometimes I just want to be mad, sometimes I don't want to talk about it, and the funny thing is we've bonded like a couple old ladies (all we're missing is the tea/coffee & there's a significant difference in age).. I dunno about you, but I love feeling comfortable enough to slowly let stuff out (when/where I'm ready).. She is all that & then some ❤️ I thank you, Linda! Thanks for caring

Linda has been a great therapist/counselor so far. She is very keen in wanting to know your story, and provides meaningful ways to help process it (whether that be from giving examples, some personal, some general life things, to worksheets and studies that show potential ways of moving forward from whatever your situation may be). She is very easy to talk to, and can help turn some things into laughter, and I have found that being at peace with a few things...and being able to look back and laugh, it's a great feeling. Some things will never be like that, and she also helps with learning to accept that what happened happened, and ways to move forward.

Linda has no interest in telling me how I need to live my life. Instead, she provides a mirror for me to see things clearly and the tools to help me make the necessary changes to live my best life. No judgement but no fluff either, she’s a straight shooter and I love it. Very grateful

Linda is excellent. I am able to communicate with with ease. Linda is an excellent listener but also knows when to stop me, by interjecting with ways to change the narrative.
