More about Linda

  • 23 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in New York with over 20 years of experience working in Healthcare. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and age related issues. I feel is is vital to have support as we age, so that we can continue to be relevant and productive!

My therapy style is conversational, interactive and down to earth. I believe in active listening, and treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I use a patient focused, strengths based approach that helps to build life skills to enhance everyday life. Creating a safe, supportive environment for people to share their concerns is the first step in the healing process.

I believe our greatest resource is having a support network. Sometimes we have to step outside of our immediate family or social circle to get a fresh, objective perspective. This is a courageous first step toward living your best life. I look forward to walking these steps with you, setting goals, and seeing what can be achieved when we work together.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.

Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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 been in the care of a therapist on and off for the past fifty years of my life. I’m sixty years old and I suffer from chronic depression which originated from long periods of childhood trauma. My wife recently passed away and I have also suffered a loss from a second breakdown in a relationship with a woman I loved within three years. Back in August of last year I was in very bad shape. The depression was so severe that I was often unable to walk. Yet from the start and through each and every minute hour and day I suffered, Linda has been there to talk with, listen to and most of all assure me that a light was shining at the end of the tunnel and that I was not alone. I’m not exaggerating in stating Linda found time through out the day any day of the week to be there during those times when it really mattered. And as a result of our mutual commitment to growth and peace I am happy and grateful to write this review for a very rare professional that truly belongs in this field of work.

My sessions with Linda are refreshing, liberating, and action oriented. There are those people that just get it, and that's Linda. She's quick to identify patterns and immediately builds next steps for me. I've been w her during the highs and my lows of life, and there's never a session where I've come out thinking I can't put our convo into practice. She rules.

Linda has been amazing support for me - I'm so glad we got connected through this platform and with all the traveling, using video calls is probably the most efficient way to communicate rather than face to face. Apart from being a great listener, but she brings a lot of new perspectives to our conversation and actually adds value by speaking up because I wouldn't just want someone that only listens to me - I have enough friends and family who could do that too!

She has helped me emotionally navigate so so so many difficult situations. Thank you, Linda!
