Hello, I'm Dr. Linda Chamberlain, a Licensed Psychologist and Certified Addiction Professional. I've been a practicing psychotherapist for over 40 years working with a wide range of populations and concerns. I know that making an initial contact with a therapist can be challenging. Congratulations on taking the first step! If we decide to work together, I'll want to get a deeper understanding of who you are and what's brought you here, how we can best work together, and your goals and aspirations . I value the unique perspective and experience that you bring to our collaboration. I'll want to find out about you and what you're hoping for when we begin therapy and invite you to ask me any questions you have. Building trust is so important to our relationship. I have experience and expertise that can be of help to you, but you are the expert on you. My job is to assist you in becoming the person you most want to be. I use various approaches to therapy including humanistic/existential perspectives, cognitive approaches, Buddhist psychology, and mindfulness techniques. My job is to find out what is most helpful in assisting you to reach your goals. Change and personal growth is often challenging and sometimes extraordinarily difficult, but the transformation that can occur is so valuable. I have been honored to witness people emerge from the fear and suffering that constrains them and become more of the person they long to be. Therapy is the journey toward your better self. I am always delighted when I have the opportunity to be a companion, consultant, and guide in that process. I look forward to getting acquainted and to our work together. I'm ready when you are....

Hello! My name is Brian and I am a Licensed Psychologist with over 30 years of experience in the field. I began my career on the faculty at Duke University Medical Center in Durham, NC where I saw clients and supervised psychiatric interns completing their outpatient rotations. I have also served as the Clinical Director for a national managed care organization, where I was responsible for monitoring and ensuring best practice treatment planning and therapeutic techniques from over 5,000 practitioners across the United States in a wide range of therapeutic settings including inpatient hospitalization, partial and intensive outpatient care, and outpatient settings. I am currently serving as the Chair of the Graduate Psychology program at a major online university in Florida. Clinically, I work with clients affected by depression, anxiety, self-esteem/motivation, and career challenges. Originally from the mid-west, I currently reside in south Florida. I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology and Biochemisty from Rutgers College in New Brunswick, NJ and my Doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from the University of Miami in Coral Gables, FL. I also returned to school following my Doctoral degree to obtain an MBA from Pfeiffer University in Charlotte, NC as I am also interested in looking at financial models that promote greater quality of care in behavioral health settings. My approach to therapy is both client-centered and solution-oriented. I strongly believe that clients are the experts of their lives and can be empowered to make changes that allow them to reach their goals. I assist clients in identifying areas of focus (i.e., a roadmap to what they want to achieve in therapy) as well as the steps necessary to take to make the positive changes that they desire. This is accomplished through Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques where I assist clients in exploring relationships among their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that may be contributing to barriers to their short- and long-term goals, ultimately creating a path to positive outcomes. Outside of my work, I am a competitive rower and devoted father of two wonderful children. I enjoy spending time with my wife and children, traveling, home improvement projects and restoring and maintaining my classic sports car.

Navigating today's complicated world can be incredibly difficult... Romantic relationships, family, job, finances, health, general stress...
