Restoring the nervous system is a step towards healing what we hold inside.
Meet Linda
My intention is to support clients towards self-awareness, greater resilience and nervous system health.
Together, I will help you address the issues that keep you from living more fully and help move you toward an improved relationship with those around you, as well as within yourself.
As a Somatic Experiencing therapist, I use a body-centered approach and believe learning how to feel safe and settled is essential to change. Since our trauma is stored in our bodies’ tissues (primarily muscles and fascia) we can work together to locate and gently begin to unwind the trauma “from the inside out.”
I use a blend of other psychotherapy approaches such as attachment theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), client centered, Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness. My goal is to teach and empower you during our sessions, to help you learn to integrate these practices into your own life, thus allowing you to restore your nervous system’s ability to self-regulate.
Specialties
Somatic Experiencing
Somatic Experiencing is a naturalistic, body-oriented approach for resolving trauma symptoms and relieving chronic stress.
Safe & Sound Protocol (SSP)
The SSP provides a sense of safety and the ability to socially engage. It helps to calm and regulate the emotional and physiological state. Social anxiety is reduced and many clients feel more enjoyment connecting with others in a variety of social settings.
