Linsay Fox
Student Therapist - MACP (IN PROGRESS) Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Hello! I am a student therapist and Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) here at Rebound Total Health. I always aspired to a career in healthcare, but it was my own personal struggles and my experience in brain stimulation therapy that ignited my passion for counselling. I believe in connecting with others on a genuine level, where no one has to pretend to be “ok,” and no conversation is too uncomfortable or taboo. My goal is to help individuals find fulfillment and joy in life, and it is my honor to provide the support and guidance needed to overcome life’s struggles.
My mission is to empower individuals to navigate life’s challenges with grace and resilience, fostering personal growth and well-being.
We can connect virtually or in person

We can also meet conveniently online or via telephone, giving you more flexibility to choose a time and place that works for you and your busy schedule.

Working with me
When working with me, you can expect to feel safe, supported and understood while we work towards transformative change. I foster a trust-based relationship grounded in honest and transparency. My approach is open-minded, empathetic and easygoing, yet I am also adept at delving into complex emotions and addressing sensitive topics. I aim to create a collaborative space focused on your needs, where you feel empowered to overcome struggles and achieve your goals.
Worth mentioning
As clients decide who they want to work with for counselling, there’s lots to take into consideration! Here are some additional perks you should know of!
I combine empathic attunement to your emotions with strong pattern recognition skills to help me make meaningful connections. This intuitive approach allows me to understand the nuances of your experiences and gain deep insights into the root causes of your struggles, helping to find effective ways to address them.
You can expect honesty and transparency in our sessions, delivered with kindness and empathy. I encourage you to be equally honest and genuine with me, creating a safe space for open and authentic communication that fosters growth.
I take a holistic approach to therapy, considering your physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being. This comprehensive perspective ensures that we address all aspects of your life to promote overall healing and growth.
What does a session with me look like?
In a session with me, you can expect a collaborative atmosphere where you help dictate the direction and focus because it is about you and your needs. I strive to create a space where you can be yourself without judgment, using metaphors to make complex issues more understandable. You can expect honesty and empathy, even if it’s difficult to hear but always delivered with compassion, as well as moments of discomfort, which are part of growth and change. There will be exploration of your experiences and concerns, along with humor and laughter to lighten the process.

My approach
My approach to therapy is holistic and individually tailored, ensuring that each client’s unique experiences and needs are addressed. I work collaboratively, exploring your personal values to align goals and actions with what truly matters to you. By drawing from various therapeutic modalities, I provide flexible and adaptive support. I believe in being direct and honest, delivering feedback with compassion. Together, we create a non-judgmental space where you feel safe to explore and grow, empowering you to overcome challenges and achieve meaningful change.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT focuses on accepting difficult emotions and experiences rather than trying to eliminate them, while committing to actions aligned with personal values. It integrates mindfulness techniques with strategies to foster psychological flexibility and promote meaningful behavior change.
Mixed/Eclectic Modalities
Utilizing a blend of therapeutic approaches tailored to individual needs, mixed or eclectic modalities draw from various techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and others. This flexible approach ensures a customized treatment plan that addresses diverse aspects of the client’s concerns and preferences.
Person-Centered Therapy
Person-centered therapy emphasizes the client’s inherent capacity for growth and self-understanding. The therapist provides a supportive, empathetic environment where the client leads the exploration of their experiences and feelings. The focus is on fostering self-discovery, personal growth, and enhancing self-trust.
Trauma-Informed Therapy
Trauma-informed therapy acknowledges the impact of trauma on an individual’s life and emphasizes safety, trustworthiness, choice, collaboration, and empowerment in therapeutic interactions. It integrates knowledge about trauma and its effects into all aspects of treatment, supporting clients in addressing trauma-related symptoms and promoting healing and resilience.
