Scott Kahler, PhD, LMFT, CPC, AAMFT Approved Supervisor
I am licensed in Indiana with 17 years of professional work experience. I specialize in helping clients with anxiety and stress, challenges with self-esteem, lack of confidence and motivation, and coping with life changes. I also have experience working with neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ clients. I believe in treating everyone, in and out of therapy, with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
As a collaborative, client-centered therapist and coach, I am dedicated to conversations in which you have the opportunity to identify and define what you want in your life instead of the problems you're currently experiencing. We will explore the habits of thought, behavior, and other blocks you see as getting in your way, and partner in confidence-building conversations about how you want to respond to these challenges to get more of what you want from yourself and in your life, and less of what you don’t. In this process, I will be curious about exceptions to problems, and what helps make these exceptions possible. Finally, we will also talk about how you want to use your time with me to support the plans you develop, and how you want to incorporate the successes you experience into your life -- for results that last.
Taking the step to sign up for therapy can take courage. Congratulations for getting started! I look forward to hearing from you.
