My name is Nancy Lindler and welcome to my practice.  I am an experienced Marriage and Family Therapist.  I have been practicing therapy for 10 years.   I use a variety of approaches that I have seen to be helpful for most people.  It is my intention to meet people where they are in life, at this moment, free of any judgement or agenda. I firmly believe that each person is more than capable of being their own director in their life.  As a therapist helper, it is my job to help you find your own path of truth and stick with it.  I have also seen it to be true that most people have a sense of knowing where they need to go in life and or what they need to do, they just can't seem to get out of their own way.  When we are in the middle of the struggle, we can feel powerless and stuck. We can't see the forest for all the trees!  

I use a present oriented, skills based approach that supports you to become your own best therapist over time.  This applies to a couple or marriage relationship, a family problem, or any individual concern.  Do you ever notice how the situation might be different each time, but somehow the same lousy feeling hangs out?  You always end up frustrated, angry, or disappointed even though it was your intention no to "go there", but you end up there anyway.  Once this cycle gets going, whether it is with your spouse/partner, ex spouse, child, friend, parent, teenager, neighbor, co-worker, or even your dog, it often feels impossible to stop. It is not.  I help my clients identify the problem dynamics in session. You get work to do between sessions. Together we track your progress and fine tune what works for you. I am always happy when I work myself out of a job.

Sometimes we are struggling with life situations that are out of our control.  There is a simple truth to this life, sometimes it hurts.  Sometimes it hurts alot. Sometimes it doesn't seem right or fair.  Support from the right therapist during these hurtful times can be life changing.  

As a potential client, I encourage you to shop around for the right therapist.  Working with me may be a good fit, or not.   Confidentiality and the relationship with your therapist is where the magic is, without these two fundamentals, lasting change will not take place. I welcome your phone call or email.  I am happy to answer any questions you may have about my practice or my therapy approach.  If I don't have the experience or expertise to help with your situation; I will tell you. I look forward to speaking with you.
