Nancy Lichtenstein, MFT

Finding a therapist you connect with can be difficult but from my first appointment with Nancy, I really felt like she got me. I have been seeing her for over one year now and she has given me insight and awareness into myself, my triggers and my patterns that have really helped me. The tools Nancy has taught me have been so empowering. My relationships with my boyfriend, my parents and my boss are stronger and healthier. The ability to ask for what I need in a positive manner has given me more self confidence.
These are tools I will have the rest of my life.
It hasn’t always been easy but the satisfaction of knowing I am solving my problems rather than putting a band-​aid on them makes me feel amazing!
Nancy is a gifted therapist and I highly recommend her!

My boyfriend and I had never gone to couples counseling before. We didn’t know what to expect. Our fears were how were we going to know if this person is a good therapist and right for us? We have always been able to work things out on our own before. We didn’t really want to spend the money. What if the therapist just does a lot of talking and not enough real work to improve our relationship? I knew we needed some hands on help to be able to establish honest communication between the two of us and help us navigate through the anger that results from all of our fighting, miscommunication, hurt feelings and lack of trust. I knew it would not be easy and my boyfriend would be on the defensive since it was my idea to see a therapist, but Nancy put us at ease right away. In our first session, she demonstrated a good understanding of what she saw going on and listened without judgment. She gave us tools and skills to work on over the next several weeks. We felt safe and comfortable and we felt we could open up and trust her. It hasn’t always been easy, but it sure feels good to know we are working towards something much better. It’s been empowering to see the positive changes in our relationship. Working with Nancy has been motivating and has given us hope. If you are looking for a relationship expert, go no further. She’s the best!
