Lina focuses on creating a confidential, non-judgmental, and collaborative space where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions. While her primary interests are in CBT and psychodynamic therapy, she tailors her approach to each client's unique needs and goals. She believes that with the right tools and support, meaningful change is possible.
