Lara Linder, MA

I’ve been working as a therapist for five years now, specializing in providing compassionate, solution-focused support with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to children, teenagers and adults.Therapy, to me, means being seen, understood and heard with empathy and no judgemment.

 

I like CBT because it focuses on the here and now and the future. Yes, I have to understand what happened in the past, patterns or triggers, however, the main focus is for us to figure out the now, with various tools that are individualized to you, we will shape therapy to your needs.

 

I specialize in Anxieties (generalized anxiety, social anxiety, health anxiety, phobias), panic attacks, OCD and Expat Life.

 

I’m originally from Germany, and started moving around as a child, I lived in Germany, China, Budapest, America, and Greece, and understand what it’s like to build a life far from home, not understand the language, make friends, learn the culture and all the small details that seem so big, and the added stress that comes with it. No matter where you are in the world, how big or little you may think your concern is, my goal is to provide you a safe space and practical tools to regain balance, and bring you back to the here are now.
