Lina Assad Cates
With nearly two decades of clinical experience, I have built my practice on a deep belief in the power of resilience the idea that no matter how heavy life feels, growth and healing are always possible. My role as a therapist is both advocate and guide. I work alongside individuals and couples who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about how to move forward, helping them uncover their inner strength and reconnect with their most authentic selves.
