Talk Therapy Helps.com

My passion is supporting each client's personal
journey of growth and life management. This
requires, and I offer, respect for each person's
culture, beliefs, and life experiences. It is my
strong belief that each person is the authority on
her own life.

With caring and skilled guidance, each client can
reach his goals. I blend techniques from narrative,
solution focused, cognitive-behavioral, and other
types of therapy, choosing an approach that most
effectively supports that client's journey.

For therapy to be effective, you need to be comfortable
with your therapist. So let me introduce myself . . .

About Linda

   I am a Marriage and Family Therapist [MFT], licensed by
   the State of California Board of Behavioral Sciences .
   California License # 41878

I am a Registered Dietitian, Registration # 487799.

  Whichever professional you choose to
  see for therapy, counseling, or coaching,
  please do yourself the favor of verifying
  their professional credentials. When a
  person is licensed, their training and
  experience has been determined to be
adequate to provide mental health
services. In California MFT licenses can
  be verified at www.bbs.ca.gov.

Once you have verified licensure, choose a therapist
with whom you feel comfortable. Research has shown
that the relationship between therapist and client is
the biggest factor in producing positive results in therapy.

Registered Dietitians have completed academic and experience requirements established by the
Commission on Dietetic Registration, the American Dietetic Association's credentialing agency, including
a minimum of a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university and an accredited pre-professional
experience program (i.e., internship, traineeship, etc.). Dietetic registration can be verified by checking the
American Dietetic Association website: http://eatright.org/.
