About Robert Lindsay

He often uses a driving metaphor to describe the work - looking forward through the windshield to set a direction, consulting the rearview mirror to learn from the past, and using a clear plan to reach chosen goals. The focus is on learning from prior patterns while cultivating a vision and purposeful choices that align with core values.
In sessions he strives to create an environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment. He supports and empowers clients through collaborative work to identify goals, develop coping strategies, and practice integrity to the values they identify as most important. As an LCSW - a licensed clinical social worker trained in assessment, therapy, and social systems - he integrates practical tools and client strengths to help people move toward more fulfilling, sustainable change.
