Vision

Linda believes in the healing power of relationships. The counseling relationship helps clients to explore the physical, emotional, and spiritual changes that will bring them to fulfillment on their life journeys. Changing our thought patterns can also change the ways our bodies function, reducing physical symptoms of depression and anxiety. Linda believes that healing ultimately involves understanding God's loving-kindness for us and for the people that are in our lives.
