Dr. Linda Anngela-Cole, LCSW
About me
I am licensed in Nevada with 14 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping all ages of clients with anxiety and depression, trauma, coping with grief and loss, dealing with stressful life experiences, and improving communication skills to improve interpersonal relationships. I have spent much of my professional career working with people at the end of life (hospice work). I have specialized training and skills working with clients with severe illness & disability, caregiving, and bereavement. I also have much experience working with teens and young adults with trauma. I particularly enjoy working with people in transition (e.g. divorce, health-related, job changes/loss, age-related & transitions due to a death in the family). I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Linda Anngela-Cole. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Dr. Anngela-Cole has been such a saving grace. It took me years to find the right therapist for me who understood where things were going. Especially how things were working in my head. I'm so glad she's also not a yes-woman as we all need that person to keep us aware of our situation and be realistic with ourselves and yet be gentle and kind with the words they can give.
I'm super thankful to BetterHelp for giving me the opportunity to work with a therapist like her and I couldn't be more grateful for that.

Dr. Linda actively listens and reassures you about how you are feeling and gives great insight on how to redirect yourself. She is a very warm and inviting person and creates a space that is free of judgement. I definitely recommend her if you are looking to start out on your therapy journey or just need someone who will be supportive of your goals.
