Nikki Linde, LPCC
About Me
My passion is to help others heal from trauma and to enjoy healthy relationships. We all need trusted relationships, to be comforted and to comfort, and to share our joys and struggles. The more connected we are with others, the more we can explore, take risks, restore, and flourish. Yet, sometimes we feel far away from people we long to share our lives with. Together, we will work to develop healthy bonds with self and others, make sense of confusing feelings and physical reactions, and practice skills that bring relief and healing.
Education & Experience
I believe a strong therapist-client relationship is the foundation for successful healing. On this foundation, I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy to help clients break through patterns that keep them stuck. I also incorporate concepts from Neurobiology to help people who experience painful memories and difficult feelings to discover new ways to cope and thrive. I am trained in EMDR Basic and EFT, and I have experience in Motivational Interviewing, Internal Family Systems, CBT and DBT which I use collaboratively, with my clients, to help them achieve their goals.
