About Nancy
Nancy Schulz is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 18 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She also focuses on communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, and self-love.
Nancy approaches therapy as a collaborative process. She treats clients as the experts on their own stories and looks for strengths that can be used to address current problems. Sessions include straightforward conversations about what is getting in the way now and practical steps to try between meetings.
Her style is direct and supportive. She helps people notice patterns in relationships and in how they talk to themselves. That can mean practicing new ways of communicating, trying different ways to manage stress, or working through past hurts so they cause less pain now.
Clients often come for help after a life change or when they feel stuck about what comes next. Nancy talks through what matters to each person and helps turn uncertain feelings into clearer next steps. She avoids jargon and uses plain language during sessions.
Before scheduling, people are encouraged to confirm current session options. Nancy sees adults who want to address emotional or relational struggles and to consider questions about life purpose and direction.
Background and approach: Nancy has worked in clinical settings across California and brings nearly two decades of experience to her work. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts practical methods to each client’s goals. Her focus is on clear communication, coping skills for anxiety and stress, and processing trauma and shame so clients can move forward with more confidence.
Evidence-based approaches and online work
Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and on processing difficult memories. Cognitive and behavioral methods help people identify stress and anxiety patterns, try new coping strategies, and practice different responses to relationship problems. These approaches are useful for low mood, worry, and communication issues.Trauma-focused techniques guide people through a careful review of painful events and the reactions that followed. That often involves learning skills to manage strong emotions, reducing how much past events interfere with daily life, and building resilience in relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help clients decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences. This is a collaborative process that may shift as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific online session formats. Confirm current session options before booking so you know how meetings are scheduled and delivered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use remote meetings to keep steady momentum between in-person appointments when that option exists.
