Linda E. Powers, LCMHC, RN

Linda specializes in parenting therapy and believes in treating the “whole” person. She recognizes that our past influences the present, and that we can create change in our lives when we’re ready. Her approach draws primarily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, incorporating strategies from Solution-Focused Therapy, DBT, Positive Psychology, Mindfulness, and Family Systems. She tailors this approach to each client’s developmental stage and needs. Understanding the factors that contribute to symptoms and concerns is central to her work, and she believes helping people gain insight is key to lasting change.

In her practice, Linda addresses a wide range of concerns, including adjustment to life’s challenges, parenting concerns, and parenting education. She also works with relationship concerns, developmental concerns, grief, depression, and anxiety. Additionally, she supports clients with ADHD, ODD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and PTSD.

Linda is the author of Parenting Across the Life Span (Powers, 2018). The book reflects her belief that parenting is a career with continually changing roles. Understanding each developmental stage, she explains, makes this journey easier to navigate.
