About me
I'm Linda, a CBT Psychotherapist and Transformational Coach, with a passion for helping individuals unlock their full potential and achieve lasting well-being. I have many years of experience with clients experiencing a range of emotional difficulties, as well as feeling ‘stuck’ in their life. I bring a unique blend of therapeutic and coaching approaches to guide you through your personal and professional journey.
How I Can Help You:
In my practice, I seamlessly integrate Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and life coaching principles to provide you with a holistic and empowering experience. CBT uses evidence-based techniques to help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns, fostering positive changes in behaviour and emotions.
Meanwhile, transformational coaching focuses on setting and achieving meaningful goals. Whether you're navigating career transitions, seeking personal growth, or striving for a healthier work-life balance, my coaching sessions are tailored to empower you with clarity, motivation and a roadmap for success.
I am a trained breathwork practitioner and use breathing strategies to teach you how to release tension and painful emotions, whilst building resilience and your ability to self-regulate your emotions.

I am committed to your success and will provide you with the tools and insights needed to overcome challenges, make informed decisions, and lead a more fulfilling life.
I have personally experienced various forms of psychological therapies and alternative healing modalities, and am well-versed in taking a holistic approach to your journey of self discovery and healing.
