Linda helps me to feel good about myself even when I am really struggling to see my worth. She is kind, experienced, and accepting.

Linda has helped me so much in the past few years. I used to be too emotional and lack self awareness. I would get caught up in how I feel instead of stepping back and looking at the facts. Linda has helped me find a way to express my emotions through writing them down. I have found this technique helps me understand how I feel.
