Hello,
My name is Linda Burroughs and I would like to welcome you to the BetterHelp community. Acknowledging the need for support takes courage and is a major step towards making positive changes in your life. If you are ready, I am here to assist you.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 35 years of experience. I have had the opportunity to work in an agency that focused on the medical, social and emotional needs of children and adults. I have provided home based services to the physically and disabled, at risk mothers and adults experiencing depression, anxiety and feelings of loss. Additionally, I have worked as a school social worker, administrator of special education programs, principal of an early childhood building and an adjunct professor. In these roles, I have developed a unique set of skills, a wealth of knowledge and clinical expertise to help individuals increase self-awareness and develop life-long wellness.
I believe that personal growth comes from within for those who are determined to improve their quality of life. Yes, it takes hard work but your desired outcomes can be achieved. My job is to listen, assist you with developing positive strategies and celebrate your accomplishments as you move forward. I invite you to enlist my help as you begin your journey.
I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Linda has been helpful--I feel better with the techniques she has recommended. She is always open and listens to what I have to say. I feel like I am talking to a friend I have known for years. Betterhelp is better help even though it's all online.
Linda Burroughs is so awesome! Right off the back felt comfortable and felt easy to open up. She has the best advice and is super understanding. Without a doubt would recommend her to anyone! Best vibe ever and amazing personality. Every session has me feeling more confident and better about my self.
Miss Burroughs is incredibly positive and insightful, she is compassionate and understanding. She provides practical skills to practice daily and helps to keep me accountable to improve on what I can control. I highly recommend her as a counselor to support your needs
Linda is very thoughtful with her words and I appreciate very much how she makes sure she understands your questions and communicates clearly. I can tell she genuinely wants to see me win.
I’ve had a few sessions with Linda so far and can’t recommend her enough! I’ve had 2 therapists before that didn’t work out, but I’ve felt incredibly comfortable with Linda so far and confident in her abilities and desire to help. She’s a great listener but also offers feedback that’s is practical and helpful. I’m looking forward to continuing to work with her.
