Multicultural Therapists in 30092

Hello! I am a holistic, postmodern, creative, and non-traditional psychotherapist who takes a developmental and systems perspective on human behavior - recognizing the intersectionality of the whole person. One's unique physical, mental, emotional, social, and cultural aspects directly impact one's struggles, challenges, and goals. I work to help clients form an in-depth understanding of themselves beginning in childhood where core beliefs, attachment-patterns, and automatic thinking/behaving originates. I take an inclusive, LGBTQIA+ affirming & multicultural approach specializing in experiential and inner-child therapy.

Listen. Learn. Liberate. I believe in having vulnerable, courageous conversations; I care deeply about social justice, spirituality, and whole-health healing. I help my clients to learn more about the origin of certain limiting beliefs about themselves and the world, and how these beliefs inform their current actions and relationships. I am most passionate about relationships (including our relationship with ourselves). También hablo español! I am not providing in-person sessions at this time.

Your life seems to be going well, but deep inside you feel like you're just a great pretender. You’re doing your best to be a good parent, partner, daughter, co-worker, but no matter how hard you try, you end up feeling like you could be better. You’re struggling with feelings of doubt, grief, shame and irritability. When the day is over you deal with restless thoughts traveling a mile a minute, all to remind you of the things you have yet to get done. You can’t sleep and no matter how many times you try to organize your life, it just seems to always feel messy. One day you're a “go getter”, next day you struggle to get out of bed.

Grief is hard. Dictionary.com defines it as, “keen mental suffering or distress over affliction or loss; sharp sorrow; painful regret.” Grief can overwhelm and change you on a fundamental level. It can become the thing by which you mark time. Before the loss. After the loss. Replaying decisions to see if there is anything you could have done to change the outcome. Maybe you feel traumatized by the images of your loved one’s last moments and you can’t get those thoughts out of your mind. Struggling with anger, guilt or just feeling lost are all common feelings of grief.

Recovery is possible! We are all capable of changing, healing, and growing. I support adults, couples, and families who are experiencing relational conflict, depression, grief, anxiety, life stress, life transitional periods (e. g. divorce, job loss, midlife transformations), serious mental illness, and other struggles as well. I am especially passionate about supporting adults recovering from substance use disorders (addiction) and their families.

I am SO glad you're here! If you know what it feels like to struggle, whether its with normal day-to-day tasks, communicating your needs, putting up boundaries, or all of the above (all at the same time), I am SO glad you're here. If you feel lost, lonely, tired, or stuck, I am still so glad you're here! If you struggle with decision-making, your identity, your sexuality, or relationships, I am so glad you're here. If you're ready, I'm ready. Let's help you reach that peace you're looking for, together, all in your time!

Linné is a compassionate psychotherapist whose goal in therapy is to help individuals heal and reach their full potential. She finds great joy in creating a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space for her clients as they journey toward their unique goals. Therapy with Linné isn't fussy, but rather relaxed and laid back, but she will challenge you when needed.

Are you ready? Are you ready to control of your life? Are you ready to protect yourself from your own cognitive distortions? Are you tired of negativity, drama and inner conflict? Are you ready for clarity, mental peace and psychological well-being? Are you ready to really understand yourself and be empowered to change? Are you ready to redevelop and be reintroduced to a more enlighten version of yourself? Are you ready to dispose of blame and embrace your past experiences and learn from them; ready to be more than a conqueror? Are you ready to change for good?

In life we often come to a point where what has been no longer works. We reach a point where we have to make changes for our wellbeing and/or happiness. We reach a crossroad, and must figure out which direction to take. In my work with clients, I aim to help them navigate this process. This includes exploring options that are available or could be forged. It includes exploring the impact of change on existing relationships. It includes making space for all the feelings, both good and difficult, that come with considering something new. It also includes finally attending to past pain/trauma that could be clouding the process now.

Everyone needs a safe place where they can process a problem or work through a difficult life transition. Whether you are dealing with grief, depression, anxiety, or wounds from your past, we can work together to bring healing to your life. I believe in playing a supportive role in my client's transformation toward restoration and self-empowerment. Through both personal and professional experiences, I have come to see how incredibly courageous and resilient individuals can be and find it to be a blessing and a privilege to be able to work in this field.

In building resiliency there is a frequent pivot between surrendering & fighting for strength to define a purposed life. At our best we clearly see our resilience, but at our worst our vision is often disillusioned with the “could haves”/“should haves”. I work with adolescents & adults to help shape an achievable vision to work towards actualizing your greatest potential. Using a Strength-based approach I shift self-talk away from constant thoughts about “what’s wrong” to “what’s good” as the smallest affirmation can uplift immensely. When appropriate, I incorporate Spiritual Social Work as empowerment to faith over fear.

Do you find yourself in depleting relationships which has impacted your ability to trust yourself and others? Do you struggle with putting your needs first? Do you work in a corporate space that feels suffocating at times? Do you struggle with fertility or are you currently trying to conceive and feel like no one understands or says the right things? Are you considering a non traditional way of conceiving and want to work with someone who is trained to meet your needs and also understands this experience first hand? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you have come to the right place.

Do you or your loved one want to decrease anxiety, diminish depression, increase emotional balance, and improve healthy coping skills? Do you want to parent more effectively have better understanding of your relationships and communicate in healthier ways? Have you or a loved one experienced a trauma? With over 20 years of experience with children, adolescents, young adults, and families, I offer focused care and a safe place to grow. Contacting a therapist is not an easy decision to make and it takes a lot of courage. When you take the first step, I will join in the journey. I look forward to meeting and working with you.

The ideal client is searching for a safe space to release what is going on in their minds but hasn’t been able to find a space to do so yet. A client that is dealing with second guessing themselves, or thinking they aren’t good enough despite wanting to continue on and do better for themselves will find comfort here. A client that is trying to get their life back together, or in order for the first time, due to the chaos that they are going through are invited to join a space to help them develop and implement the goals to lead to a more satisfying life.

Are you nervous, having panic attacks, shortness of breath, or maybe your heart is racing and you can't explain it; it could potentially be anxiety. Maybe for lack of better coping skills you have increased your use of alcohol or drugs. Maybe your family is telling you you are addicted to or abusing alcohol or drugs, but you don't know what else to do. Some people don't understand what is happening to their body and are fearful of where to go or how to get help.

Whether you're dealing with issues at work, with family, a difficult life transition, or a curveball that life has thrown your way...life can feel very overwhelming sometimes! If you're tired of feeling stuck, unsure of how you got here, and ready for a fresh start, let's chat! I specialize in working with adults suffering from stress, burnout, and anxiety to help them improve their personal and professional resilience. As a therapist, I use a collaborative and integrative approach that is centered on solution-building rather than problem-solving.

My practice focuses on providing a goal-oriented therapeutic experience for my clients. I have many years of experience working in multiple settings and am aware of the difficulties we face in today's society. During sessions together, I will help set goals and develop an atmosphere of trust, fostering open discussion of the client's thoughts and feelings. I work with teenagers and adults experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, chronic health issues, emotional/behavior concerns, learning disabilities, relationship/family issues, and grief/loss.

Life is full ups and downs. In my practice I will try and help you find those ups and get back there. I have extensive experience working with women issues, relationship issues, neurodivergence, trauma, family separation, anxiety, depression, sexual abuse, and parenting. I find it impactful to look at our own system and be in tune with all our parts for optimal balance and inner peace. There are many studies that show that the most effective thing in therapy that determines positive progress is the rapport between you and the therapist. Finding who you connect with is essential, let's see if we could be a good fit.
