About Nancy

She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, which she uses to guide conversations about coping, grief, and everyday worries. Nancy offers calm, straightforward support for people trying to find their footing again.

She treats anxiety and depression with clear, goal-focused sessions. Those conversations often start by identifying what feels most urgent and what small steps feel doable.

Background and approach

Nancy talks through coping tools, routines, and ways to rebuild confidence after loss or major changes. Nancy has ten years of clinical experience and background in health-related settings that stretches beyond direct therapy. That experience informs how she approaches issues like caregiver strain, cancer-related stress, and end-of-life concerns.

She understands the practical strains these situations bring and helps people sort priorities and next steps. Sessions often look like focused problem-solving mixed with space to process feelings. Nancy pays attention to family of origin patterns, relationship stress, and compassion fatigue.

She helps people restore energy and find clearer ways to make decisions about work, relationships, and care responsibilities. Her work also includes support for aging and geriatric questions, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and seasonal mood changes. Nancy keeps language simple and actions specific so people can try changes between sessions and track what helps.

Online support

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on short-term skills and behavior change. For example, problem-solving approaches break big problems into smaller, manageable steps and help people test what works. That method can be useful for caregiver strain, career transitions, and daily stress.

Cognitive-style approaches involve noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small actions. These strategies are often used for anxiety, depression, and seasonal mood changes because they help people shift patterns and try different responses.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets conversations feel close while phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited. Chat and messaging can be useful for quick check-ins or shorter coaching-style support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or medical schedules.
