More about Linda

  • 8 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I am a Licensed Practicing Counselor, (LPC). I have a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and my Bachelor’s is in Community Service – Family Counseling. I also have a Masters in Higher Education. I am trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Prolonged Exposure Therapy. I have extensive experience with mental health treatments, but currently I lean toward a short-term, eclectic style of therapeutic delivery including, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered, Brief Solution Focused, Narrative, Existential and Faith Based therapies in order to meet a broad scope of client needs. I have the ability to assess others needs effortlessly and instill hope for change. I am driven to help others better understand themselves, to navigate through life’s difficulties and overcome obstacles; to build capacity for wellbeing, love, peace, and happiness . . . which leads to productive, healthy, meaningful lives. I tend to favor Brief Solution Focused Therapy 4-8 sessions. However, at times a few more sessions are needed. I have a high level of empathy and compassion which stems from life’s experiences, and I strongly believe in providing unconditional positive regard to all clients.

I am a person of Faith and will use Biblical principles only IF REQUESTED. I am able to separate my beliefs and views from others and value the differences. I do not impose my views, nor do I judge others’. I have proficiencies in Couples/relationship counseling and Career Counseling, i.e. career planning, academic planning, career assessments and Life Skills. I am a part-time therapist but I am able to open my schedule in order to accommodate you most of the time. I will respond to messages withing 24 hours. Please understand I am available during business hours, 9am -4 pm EST.

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.

I have never spoken with a therapist before and I was nervous. Linda welcomed me with open arms by her calm voice, smile, and the questions she asked. It was therapeutic (really!) to be in a safe space to talk, share, and cry without judgement and without being interrupted. I am so happy I chose to follow through with the therapy. I have spoken with others about seeking her services via this app!!
