Linda Bjur, LCSW
Linda Bjur is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker committed to providing the highest quality care for her clients. When individuals experience trauma, crisis, relationship difficulties, or life stressors, it is not uncommon for their life to become unraveled. Linda's passion is to help individuals learn to heal in healthy ways, realistically engage in the hope that things can change and get better, and promote the idea that happiness can be achieved.
"There needs to be a level of trust and comfort between the patient and counselor, especially given the level of difficulty for many to seek counseling," Linda says. "I base my counseling techniques on the theory that thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected, meaning one impacts the other, therefore if you change one you can change another." Linda utilizes mindfulness, solution-focus, and EMDR to help her clients work through a variety of mental health challenges.
