In the NGO and Public sectors, Linda has treated patients of Westmead Depression Clinic, Brookvale Community Mental Health Services, the University of New South Wales Child Behaviour Clinic and WayAhead (former Mental Health Association NSW).
Linda uses evidence-based treatments and draws from modalities such as Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Trauma-Informed Practice, Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) and Psychotherapy and Person-Centered Therapy (PCT).
Linda’s approach can be described as warm, supportive, and empowering. Linda recognises that each patient is a complex individual with their own capacity to heal and overcome life’s challenges.
