Individual Coaching & Counseling • working with couples

Linda Carroll
MS, LMFT, BCC
Every relationship has challenges, whether full of promise and hope, in a crisis, or just needing a tune-up.
I know how fragile the ties that hold us together can be. Frequently, I see couples who think they want out of the relationship when they are just looking for a way out of the difficulty, stress, and lack of healthy communication.
As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I offer my four decades of expertise to coach you in improving, deepening, and strengthening your relationship.
Using a variety of modalities—including Imago relationship therapy—I will help you with communication skills training, self-understanding, and learning practical tools for bringing empathy and goodwill into your relationship.
I welcome the opportunity to help you discover your next growth path, and to help you to safely and wisely reach your heart’s destination.
What I offer
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has been working as a psychotherapist for more than 40 years, a teacher, and a Board Certified Coach.
I am the author of Love Cycles: The Five Essential Stages of Lasting Love, which has been translated into several languages, and its highly-acclaimed companion book, Love Skills.
To reach as many people as possible about the steps to true intimacy, I frequently present my “Love Cycles” program at the renowned Rancho la Puerta wellness retreat and other venues across the country. I also speak about relationship issues on radio programs and podcasts, and I write for many online magazines.
Like anyone with whom I work, my own life has been filled with complexity. My calling is to use that complexity to help my clients claim their own stories and find their own paths.
