About me

Have you ever wished you had someone that could listen and be supportive without being biased? That is my goal for each and every client I work with. We have all experienced times in our life where we needed someone to be there for us. My goal is to provide you with the tools to be the best possible you.

Being a Licensed professional counselor with over 7 years of experience I have had the pleasure of working with many populations. I have worked with clients with a wide range of topics including:
Depression
Anxiety
Relationship issues
Parenting problems
Career challenges
Intimacy challenges
PTSD
ADHD
Active duty military and veterans

By utilizing a variety of psychotherapy styles such as cognitive-behavioral therapy and dyadic developmental psychotherapy balanced with acceptance and empathy the path to achieving your goals is within reach. I'm committed to creating a safe space for healing and believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
Each persons needs are unique and specific and my goal is to provide clients with an authentic relatable experience.

I've been seeing Malinda for over a month and it's been a great experience. This is my first time in therapy so I wasn't sure what to expect, she had done a great job making me feel comfortable talking about difficult things and working through them. I'm looking forward to continue growing and healing as we continue to work together.
