Linda Charnes, LMFT - Counseling & Psychotherapy Practice

After 20 years as a couple and individual therapist, I've learned some things about myself. 

The relationship that develops between me and my clients is everything.  When a client shows up in my office in pain or distress, what I see is their potential, their possibilities, and the seed of what their life can become when they relax into who they are and begin to let their true self come forward.

Our relationship is built upon my complete acceptance of you, just as you are. 

Whatever you've done and whatever has been done to you

However you found yourself in my chair 

Despite any shame or blame you might feel 

I accept you completely 

There is no room for judgment in our relationship

MY APPROACH

"Taking the step to talk to Linda continues to be one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. I consider myself extremely lucky to have found someone that understands and cares about me as much as Linda." - JH

No two people (and no two relationships) are alike. Therefore, my approach to each individual and couple is flexible and expansive.  There are times when it makes sense to include family members, partners, or friends in the therapeutic process to support your healing. 

"Linda's work challenges my partner and me to dig deeper in our quest to learn, love, and accept our ever-evolving selves and one another.  There are not enough words to express my/our gratitude for the lessons and growth she brings to our lives." - MC

A MUTUAL COMMITMENT

I am fully dedicated to the progress and welfare of each individual and couple I treat. Of course, therapy is a mutual commitment.

My commitment to you:

  • I will bring my undivided attention to our sessions, and bring my total focus to helping you feel better.
  • Even when you can't believe in your own ability to feel better and build a happier life, I will always believe in your potential. 
  • I accept every part of you fully.  
  • Over 20 years of therapy I've seen and heard it all. There will never be a need to hide your fears, your defenses, your worries, or your drama.

Linda's support, diligence, and open perspective have allowed me grow at my own pace,  and I feel a new sense of readiness toward my future and goals.  All I can really say is thank you, Linda, for always helping me from the most genuine place in your heart.  I don't know where I'd be without you!"- VC

EDUCATION

I attended graduate school at Drexel University, where I received my master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I completed additional studies at The John Hevesi Institute in London, England. I am a graduate of the Westchester Center for the Study of Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy. I have received further postgraduate education and training in a variety of contemporary therapies.

Emotional times can be a powerful opportunity for self-understanding and creating a life you love.
