Linda is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT). She has a Master of Science and, during her 30 years of practice, has been helping individuals, couples, and families navigate challenges and recover the joy and contentment they once enjoyed.

His approach to counseling is both collaborative and integrative, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral, Interpersonal, Psychodynamic, and Family Systemic Theories. He has discovered that each person has a fascinating life story to share. Through one’s story, we discover how each person was influenced by past experiences, both positive and negative; interactions with family members and peers; and beliefs constructed around thoughts and feelings experienced during significant life events. Utilizing the above mentioned theories greatly assists him in better understanding each person, his/her story, and root causes that fuel patterns of behavior. In addition to addressing the issues that brings the client to seek relief, we will together acknowledge and augment the person’s strengths.

Emma Carter, LLC

Smyrna, GA

As humans, our natural inclination is to move away from pain. But at a certain point, we may find that the strategies which once protected us are actually causing us even more pain. Through therapy, you can find ways to break old cycles that are keeping you stuck so you can move into the wholeness you desire. Emma obtained her undergraduate degree from the University of Georgia and completed her master’s degree at Richmont Graduate University in Atlanta. After graduation, Emma spent over a year as the lead therapist in an intensive treatment day program with a focus on complex trauma and its co-occurring disorders. Her experience there gave her a deep understanding of the ways in which childhood wounds re-emerge in adolescence and adulthood, enabling her to help clients examine their pasts without dwelling on them too deeply. Emma believes that there is healing in connection, whether it is through shared laughter or shared pain. She values being authentic with her clients in order that they may feel the freedom to do the same with her. She is honest, compassionate, direct, and willing to go to whatever depths her clients feel ready for.
