I have worked in a variety of settings, from in-patient to community mental health. I have worked with all age ranges. I am enthusiastic about helping people discover their inner strength and create their road map to what success is to them personally!
Looking for guidance to work through trauma? Feeling stuck in your relationship? Wondering about your life’s purpose? You’re not alone. We all face challenges at different points in our lives, and sometimes we need support to find self-awareness and compassion—both essential to healing. Using evidence-based approaches like IFS and EMDR, I help support emotional and mental health goals. I believe we all have the innate ability to feel, heal, discover, and live a more uplifting life. All it takes to begin is the willingness to take that first step and trust the process.
Therapy is a collaborative journey of self discovery and integration. Its aim is wholeness. I draw on a variety of therapeutic frameworks (EMDR, DBT, motivational interviewing, strengths based work) to meet individuals where they are at and help them identify strengths and areas of growth in their life.
Together we look at how thoughts, feelings and beliefs intersect with our life transitions and relational patterns and how they contribute to our sense of well being, or misalignment. By uncovering the needs under our feelings, we learn to take personal responsibility for expressing ourselves accurately and authentically, allowing us to feel heard, valued and understood.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with over 14 years of experience helping adolescents and adults navigate anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive environment where clients feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow and create meaningful change.
Hi, I am Linda. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have experience providing compassionate care to individuals who are experiencing situations that disrupt or dominate their daily lives. I am trauma-trained and I utilize counseling approaches that foster hope resulting in living a more satisfied and resilient life.
My ideal client is someone wrestling with feelings of shame, guilt, and a lack of authenticity. They may be navigating societal pressures or personal challenges that keep them from embracing who they are fully. Often, they feel held back by the weight of living up to others' expectations and yearn for a life where they can be unapologetically themselves. They want a space to explore and validate their lived experiences, uncover their genuine self, and build a life that feels both radically authentic and fulfilling.
I am Margaret Swanson, a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LICSW) in both Vermont and New Hampshire. I specialize in trauma - informed care and work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, Borderline Personality Disorder, bipolar disorder, substance abuse and relationship challenges. My approach draws heavily on Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) - approaches I believe are especially powerful when trauma has made it harder to trust others and move forward. I know how it feels to be stuck. With the right support, meaningful growth is possible. I offer telehealth sessions.
Asking for help is difficult, but it’s worth it for the relief it brings. In 30 years of professional experience, I have witnessed the transformative power of therapy. I specialize in working with adult individuals. I am genuinely interested in you and your human experience. How has it shaped you? What obstacles has it erected in your path? Let’s get curious about it all. My complete respect and empathy are always present.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Shelburne
Searching for therapists in Shelburne starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and stress. As you compare therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In a smaller community like Shelburne, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Vermont cities. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Vermont. You may also want to consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before the first session. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and what each therapist focuses on in care.
Therapy in Shelburne can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected payment before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, shows estimated out-of-pocket costs after your benefits are checked, and lets you book directly when you find a fit. You can browse therapists, review bios, and choose an in-person or virtual appointment when you’re ready.
