About Neeley
Neeley Cox is an LCSW who listens with warmth and directness. She offers a calm, straightforward presence for people facing anxiety, relationship pain, grief, sleep troubles, or the fallout of past abuse. Sessions aim to be practical and down-to-earth, with a mix of humor and real empathy.
She has worked in social work since 2000 and has provided psychotherapy since 2008. That background includes outpatient therapy, hospital settings, adult inpatient and geriatric psychiatric units, and state correctional facilities.
Background and approach
These roles shaped a broad view of how life stress and mental health show up. Neeley focuses on helping people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to give concrete tools for day-to-day coping.
Clients leave sessions with steps they can try between meetings. Common areas she addresses include relationships, intimacy concerns, attachment and abandonment wounds, and the emotional impact of chronic illness or caregiving stress. She also helps with panic attacks, social anxiety, guilt and shame, and issues that follow separation or divorce.
Her style is collaborative and practical. She helps people connect thoughts, feelings, and actions so small changes lead to clearer routines and steadier moods. Conversations are respectful, plainspoken, and focused on forward movement.

Online support
How evidence-based techniques work online
Evidence-based approaches focus on clear skills and step-by-step change. One common strand she uses helps people spot and challenge negative thoughts that fuel anxiety and low mood. That work teaches practical ways to test thinking and try different behaviors to get better results.Another focus is on attachment and relational patterns. This approach looks at how early experiences shape trust and closeness now, and it offers strategies to improve communication, set boundaries, and rebuild intimacy. These methods can help with abandonment fears, shame, and difficulties forming stable connections.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and what feels useful. Together they try techniques, track what helps, and adjust the plan so therapy fits the client’s needs and preferences.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face work when schedules allow. Phone sessions are good when bandwidth or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging can support quick reflections, check-ins between sessions, or a way to stay connected while juggling work and caregiving.
