Jacob Biancardi
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC CSAYC
Clients often tell me they feel truly heard, understood, and empowered after our sessions. My goal is for you to walk away with renewed hope, practical skills, and the belief that lasting change is possible—no matter where you’re starting from.
I bring a creative, accessible perspective to therapy. I blend mindfulness, neuroscience, and the latest in mental health research to help you reframe challenges, build resilience, and move toward your goals with confidence.

Linda Michlin Ludwig
Psychologist, Ph.D.
My training (Yale University Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology; four-year postdoctoral Certificate in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy) is broad and varied. I currently practice individual therapy and group therapy, both online. My approach to working with you will depend to a great degree on what you are seeking. Some people benefit from brief treatment; others seek and benefit from a deeper and longer exploration. I believe the combination of individual and group therapy can be particularly beneficial for many people. My work is guided as much by my own years of personal therapy and psychoanalysis as by my formal education.
