Mental Wellness Specialties: Stress, AnxietyRelationship issuesTrauma and abuseDepressionADHD

Hello, 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!

Do you love your child deeply, but feel like you’re always getting it wrong? You try to connect, but it keeps turning into tension, distance, or guilt. Does your child struggle with low confidence and a lack of independence? Many of the families I work with are made up of loving but burnt-out parents who feel disconnected from their child — and children who are struggling to feel understood. I’m passionate about helping families who want to reconnect but feel stuck. My approach combines evidence-based methods with a deep respect for each family’s unique cultural background, values, and traditions.. Having lived in multiple countries—including Uzbekistan, Egypt, Pakistan, and Japan I bring a deep respect for cultural differences and the unique experiences of every family. I offer therapy in English and Russian and am especially passionate about helping individuals navigate life transitions, mood-related concerns, and cultural identity. I take time to understand the cultural context you live in and adapt my work to honor your perspectives, strengths, and ways of relating. When helpful, I incorporate play and art practices into therapy, creating a space that feels safe, engaging, and inviting for children to express themselves freely. Whether I work with you, your child, or both, my goal is to help your family communicate more effectively, reduce tension, and strengthen bonds. Parenting doesn’t have to feel like a struggle — together we can build a more connected home where everyone feels heard and valued. If this is the family therapy you’re looking for, I welcome you to get in touch!

Glad that you are making the time to invest in your mental health and wellness. You need to connect with a clinician whose philosophy of treatment aligns with your values. As a licensed clinical psychologist since 2020, my passion lies in helping the full range of the adult population (18-65+); specifically emerging and young adults as well as middle and older adults. Throughout my career, I have enjoyed working within mental health outpatient clinics, VA hospitals, and university counseling centers. I have worked with a wide variety of individuals, from everyday citizens and veterans to college students and the underrepresented, all of whom experienced emotional and physical distress at various points during their lives. Earning my doctorate specializing in clinical psychology has afforded me the ability to confidently apply relevant psychological research to an expert level of clinical practice. Additionally, I have unique training in providing a comprehensive use of clinical assessment that helps to clarify client presentation and more efficiently addresses client issues, which leads to clients feeling better sooner. My extensive training is grounded in providing the most up-to-date evidence-based treatment through a cognitive-behavioral lens. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) best aligns with my therapeutic approach because this tool has been shown to target the underlying causes of distress by providing knowledge and skills to promote meaningful emotional and behavioral change. The scientifically based treatment tools I utilize effectively address client symptoms and have been shown in research to dramatically reduce distress and improve quality of life. Simply put, I value using best clinical practice in every encounter with a client! My message to you is that I will work with you to understand your concerns. I will validate and advocate on your behalf while pushing for realistic change. I will present you with healthier and long-term alternatives.

Is BetterHelp right for me?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.
Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Gretna is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.
Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.
With a lot of people in FL, therapists may be booked out with clients.
