Linda Reid Counselling Services

Personal Phylosophy:

I believe we are all born with an innate capacity for growth and healing but that it becomes obscured by the defensive barriers we build to protect ourselves from emotional wounding. Unfortunately, the walls we erect often block our capacity for joy and creative change as well. We may come to believe that we are victims of circumstance and have no power to change what's not working in our lives. It is my life's work to provide a safe and accepting environment where together we can identify your existing strengths and use these to transform current misperceptions and negative self beliefs into stepping stones to positive change and personal empowerment.
