Profile
Dr. Linebarger was born and raised in Austin, Texas and attended high school in Bonners Ferry, Idaho where she developed a love of nature, hiking, and camping. She attended UT Austin (Hook-em!) and rowed for Texas Crew, then studied abroad in Sydney, Australia for a year. After receiving her B.S. in Biology in 2008 she backpacked around the world, then spent several months in West Africa volunteering at a hospital (and survived malaria). In the spirit of adventure, she settled back in Sydney for medical school where she lived before moving back to Texas and completing Family Medicine residency in Galveston.
She is passionate about preventive and integrative medicine, mindfulness/meditation, and educating patients on the importance of mental health in relation to physical well being. She holds a 200-hour certificate in Integrative and Behavioral Medicine from the University of Arizona and she is working on certifications in Functional Medicine and Anti-aging.
In her spare time she enjoys skiing, wake-surfing, SCUBA diving, reading, yoga, hiking, trying new restaurants, and playing with her pups - Kali and Hank.
