Linda S Peterson

Life challenges us in many ways - through disappointment, loss, change and uncertainty. Sometimes we respond positively, and other times we respond with anger, frustration, sadness, anxiety or confusion. When you are feeling overwhelmed and stuck, I can help you gain clarity and handle life's challenges in healthy ways. I provide individual and couples' counseling to people who are ready for professional guidance to change what's not working in their lives. Together, we evaluate your situation and create solutions that restore emotional well-being, balance, personal satisfaction and contentment in relationships. Call for an initial consultation.

The top five STEPS my clients learn to take toward better emotional fitness are: SOCIALIZE with healthy people who make you feel good. THINK positive affirming thoughts. EXPRESS your individuality. PLAN realistically and prioritize goals. SEEK HELP when you need a professional perspective.

I believe in promoting awareness of psychological issues and their impacts, and to encourage healthy practices. My services reflect this belief: free articles, community workshops and my website's free online screenings for depression and anxiety. In addition to providing counseling, I also provide consultations to other professionals such as therapists, clergy and teachers.
