About

Listening, Connecting, Serving, and Transforming

**If Dr. Linder's fees are unaffordable, we have good news! You can work with one of his all-star associates, Colton Williges, AMFT (858-367-3773), Shanelle Collins, AMFT (858-255-1447), or Sarah Beiruty, AMFT (858-789-2659) for a little over half the cost. If you choose this option, Dr. Linder would be supporting them with your case.** My team and I specialize in high-impact trauma recovery and relationship repair using EMDR therapy (https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/relationship-and-trauma-insights/202007/what-the-heck-is-emdr-therapy-can-it-really-help-me). As a doctoral-level therapist and professor, my team and I provide "emotional surgery"—intensive, research-driven therapy designed to resolve deep-seated wounds rather than just managing symptoms. Most of our clients experience measurable, transformative change in 2-8 sessions (up to 10 to 20+ total). I am a certified EMDR therapist, Approved Consultant, and a HAP-accredited training facilitator, as well as an advanced practitioner and supervisor in Emotionally Focused Relational Therapies (couple, family and group therapy: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/relationship-and-trauma-insights/202008/what-is-emotionally-focused-relationship-therapy). Whether you are navigating trauma, relationship distress, or identity exploration, my approach is collaborative, confidential, and culturally-attuned. Having lived in Mexico for 4 years, I provide native-level Spanish services. I'm a monthly contributor to Psychology Today, translating complex clinical research into actionable healing strategies for you. Change doesn’t have to take years. If you are tired of "band-aid" therapy and are ready for the deep, focused work required to truly heal; let’s get to work! Your time and access matter. Flexible scheduling and hassle-free payment options mean the transformation and healing process works around you, not the other way around. EMDR can work in ways you wouldn’t imagine, and sometimes at a speed that feels impossible. We are social-justice oriented, LGBTQ+ affirmative, and sex-positive, and adjust my approach to fit your needs, preferences, and finances. I have advanced training in relationships, trauma, immigration and transgender evaluations, and mindfulness (https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/experts/jason-n-linder-psyd). Emotional wounds can feel like broken bones, but are very treatable. We work with expert therapists, and am pro-diversity, working with clients of many backgrounds. There are many competent therapists, so it's important to find the right one for you. We look forward to hearing from you. While we do not accept insurance and do not bill insurance providers directly, we can provide receipts to you to submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement. This is only for PPO plans with out-of-network benefits.  PPO plans usually will reimburse somewhere between 40-100 percent after your deductible. Before making an appointment, we recommend checking your mental health out-of-network benefits first to find out if you will receive reimbursement, how much you will receive, and how to submit the receipts we give you.

Testimonials

“After trying many therapists, Dr. Linder is without a doubt one of the best therapists that I have ever had. He is professional, warm-hearted, and dedicated to his clients. His EMDR therapy helped me resolve trauma in a way I didn't think was possible.”

A 29 year old client from 2020

“"Dr. Linder helped rebuild my marriage after an affair and all that led up to it, using EFT and some EMDR . Eventually in his therapy we saw how the affair was the symptom and we healed its root. It was life-changing. We are doing great 16 months later.”

A couple in their 30s in 2021

“Hi Dr. Linder, this is so unexpected, but I was reflecting a lot and wanted to thank you. I was thinking how much you helped change my mindset and how it's thanks to you. You impacted my life in a powerful way; I can't thank you enough for the work you did!”
