Linda Weissman, LCSW

When I first heard about EMDR and the miraculous results therapists were reporting with their clients I was intrigued. I had never heard of such deep healing in such a short amount of time and I decided to become trained and EMDR Certified. I have now been using EMDR with my clients for the past twelve years and it has surpassed my expectations. EMDR is a powerful healing tool that profoundly deepens and accelerates lasting change. I have used it to treat Post Traumatic Stress Disorder caused by painful events as well as for anxiety, phobias, addictions, depression, grief and performance anxiety. My clients are amazed at how quickly their fears and anxieties from past experiences loose their intensity. Issues they have worked on for years are no longer problematic. The result is increased functioning and a greater sense of balance in their lives.

I am a Certified EMDR therapist with basic and advanced training in EMDR. I continue to increase my EMDR skills by attending the yearly EMDR Conferences, workshops throughout the year, and advanced study groups. In addition to EMDR I have advanced training in working with couples. I am a therapist with Marriage Friendly Therapists. I specialize in helping couples, adults and adolescents identify and change destructive behaviors and build better relationships to achieve their potential. I have also been trained in body centered psychotherapy such as Psych-K and Body Talk and bring a holistic approach to psychotherapy.

Since my training at Columbia University I have enjoyed a long and fulfilling career as a psychotherapist. I work with a diverse clientele regardless of cultural background or sexual orientation. I do both short and long term therapy in a nurturing, nonjudgmental environment adapting my treatment to the client’s needs. In general my approach is psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral. I am particularly adept in dealing with relationship problems, depression, grief, anxiety and trauma related issues. In addition to my private practice I am a clinical supervisor and have supervised experienced therapists in family service, eating disorders, addictions, DUI and probation programs. I also have extensive experience in parent training. I empower people to make changes when they feel stuck and dissatisfied with their lives. I believe every human being can confront and overcome emotional blocks to achieve their goals and live a meaningful life.  Close >>>
