Great to meet you!

As a black man, veteran, and immigrant, I’ve seen firsthand the struggles faced by marginalized communities. I believe in meeting clients where they are and tailoring my approach to their unique culture and demographics. Together, we can develop effective strategies to address your challenges.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Through the application of research-based techniques such as Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and other pertinent modalities, I assist clients in gaining insight into their life and experiences, while processing trauma, setting and reaching goals, and promoting health and wellness.

What you can expect from our first session

Homework... Therapy is usually only 45-60 minutes per week. I ask my clients to practice the techniques we discuss in session in their day to day lives.

Linton's style is

Warm
Affirming
Solution-oriented
