Tai-Anne Linton, LCSW-C, LCSW
About me
Hi, I'm Tai-Anne. I am a licensed therapist, currently located in Baltimore, Maryland. I have been practicing therapy for seven years and have advanced training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I have my Masters Degree in Social Work from the University at Albany, SUNY and was previously a Rape Crisis Counselor. My focus is on trauma, anxiety and depression and I utilize strength-based, CBT and person-centered approaches to treatment. I enjoy working with diverse populations, including the LGBTQ+ community, parental challenges and African-American women.
Therapy helps us to address concerns that created a significant stress or change in our lives. My way of counseling is to create a non-judgmental environment as I help clients challenge their negative thinking patterns, cope with current stressors and create action plans to address their concerns. I believe psychoeducation is important throughout the therapeutic process, as it can help to address these negative cognitive patterns through learning coping skills and building a tool kit of resources to tackle stressors now and apply them in the future.
I believe that self-care is the most important thing we can do for ourselves, other than constantly expanding our knowledge. I am a big advocate for traveling and engaging in activities that bring us joy, allowing us to feel less stressed. If I seem like a great fit for you, I look forward to helping you through this growth period!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Tai-Anne Linton. 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.
Taianne Linton is the most skilled, therapist I've ever had, compared to years of marital and individual therapy, while I was married to an abusive man, and serial adulterer. Taianne is articulate, compassionate, and challenging. She gives me "homework" assignments that help me clarify my learning-process, and reframe my experience(s) in productive and healing ways, even now 16 years after my divorce. Now I am a caregiver for my elderly parents, while I also run my business. It's alot to manage, and I'm very lucky to have such a skilled therapist to help me .
