Dr. Linda McKayle, LMHC
About me
I am a Licensed mental health counselor in the state of Florida with over 16 years of experience working as a mental health counselor in different settings. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, and ADHD. My experience includes working with individual with substance abuse issues. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines person- centered, cognitive-behavioral, solution focus and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I will be available to help you when you are ready to take the next to achieve the help that you seek.
I am looking forward to working with you!
