​

​

In times of uncertainty such as these, transitions can be more fragile and developing a plan of action is more important than ever. Challenges of mental health disorders may be impacting your family and your student's schooling. Is therapy needed? Will the school pick up on it? Your students needs may not be getting met in college! They may need an accommodation plan to level the playing field. Students already in college may need more and continued support. Linda can take some of the anxiety out of  the equation via telehealth as needed. Linda is currently licensed in NC , MI and NJ.

The HEALTH of your family matters the most.
