My ideal client has experienced emotional pain or trauma, such as abuse, grief, or struggles with mental health. They may face challenges like anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or difficulty in relationships. These issues often hold them back, making it hard to feel in control of their emotions or confident in their choices. They may feel stuck in negative patterns and seek healing, clarity, and a stronger sense of self.
They want to break free from the emotional weight of the past and rebuild their self-worth. Their goal is to feel empowered, to understand themselves better, and to make decisions from a place of self-awareness

Troubled, conflicted, anxious or distressed? Struggling with loss or identity issues? Feel a relationship is in difficulty or things are not going well at home, work or college? Perhaps you are struggling to cope after receiving a medical diagnosis or wondering why you became ill in the first place? Going to therapy allows you to talk about what you are experiencing, explore reasons, develop solutions and help you attain a stronger, more fulfilled and creative self. An important part is sharing your innermost thoughts and feelings in a safe, non-judgemental therapeutic relationship with a specially trained therapist.

The ideal environment is one that both supports & challenges us. Too often we go without both of these conditions. A Life Coach will tease out and help you create your vision of what you really want your life to be. If everything in your life stays status quo, you will head into a default future. We need another perspective if not we tend to go around repeating our default patterns and getting nowhere. As a Transformational Life Coach Linda acts as the boat, that you the client steps into, to move across the gap, to get you from your current life, to the life that is calling you.

We all want to feel empowered to live our best life. But many of us don’t know how — so we end up feeling anxious, depressed, frustrated or stuck. We often turn to food, alcohol, people pleasing, overworking and other habits just to cope. If this feels familiar, I can help you take back control. I work to bring every part of you together including thoughts, behaviours, body sensations, unconscious processes and the outside systems (family, work, society) you live in. Reaching out is the first step toward reclaiming your power and creating the life you truly want.

Are you feeling anxious or overwhelmed, as if you're stuck in a cycle of stress and burnout? You're not alone. Many of us experience these feelings without fully understanding their roots. Often, our past experiences shape our present behaviors in ways we may not even be aware of.
In our therapy sessions, I aim to provide you with a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space where you can freely explore your thoughts and emotions.
Together, we will uncover the underlying patterns that may be contributing to your anxiety, worry, shame, or stress.
My goal is to help you feel better in yourself, empower you, and help you heal.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck in old patterns, or finding it hard to navigate your emotions or relationship with food? You don't have to do this alone.
I work with adults and adolescents, offering a warm, grounded, judgment-free space where you can feel heard, supported, and understood. My approach is integrative and psychodynamic, meaning I work with you at a deeper level to make sense of your experiences, while also drawing on evidence-based tools like CBT-E for eating disorders and trauma-informed interventions.

I see every client as a unique individual shaped by their life story, resources, and difficulties. No one else has lived your life or sees the world quite like you do. That’s why I approach therapy with respect for your individuality, and I aim to create a space where your story feels seen, valued, and understood. I work with people who are navigating emotional pain, childhood trauma, relationship struggles, life transitions, or unhelpful patterns that feel resistant to change. Many are looking to better understand themselves, find steadier ground, and build more meaningful connections.

Everyone is unique and my belief is that every problem has more than one solution. I am committed to life-long learning and so far I have trained in psychology, psychoanalysis, psychotherapy and hypnotherapy. I have worked in many industries and I am still learning. Life is about finding your passion, let me help you find yours.
