Linda Thompson Whidby, LPC, NCC, ASAT, ACBRT-Candidate
About Me
I love what I do! I am a trauma therapist credentialed as an Associate Sex Addiction Therapist (ASAT). I am currently in training as an Associate Couples Betrayal Recovery Therapist (ACBRT) and am slated for training in eating disorders in December. As I have found that it is not uncommon for the population I serve to experience dissociative disorders, I also have training in the Multidimensional Inventory of Dissociation (MID) assessment as well as the Semi-Structured Clinical Interview for Dissociative Symptoms and Disorders (SCID-D).
Education & Experience
I graduated from Liberty University in 2022 with a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I currently serve at two locations: HopeQuest in both residential and outpatient treatment and at Battlefield Ministries in Rome.
