Background and approach

The goal is to make daily life feel more manageable. Nancy has nine years of clinical experience in South Carolina as an LISW-CP. That background supports work on relationship issues, parenting concerns, adoption and foster care topics, and attachment challenges.

She also addresses trauma, abandonment, and codependency when these come up in sessions. Her approach blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered listening, and elements of dialectical and cognitive behavioral techniques. That mix helps people build flexibility, tolerate strong feelings, and take steps toward valued goals.

Sessions are practical and focused on what clients want to change. Nancy offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. She uses straightforward language and a collaborative tone to help people set clear, achievable goals.

If someone wants a therapist who combines direction with empathy, she aims to provide that balance.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Nancy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values, even when anxiety or difficult feelings are present. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors that reduce worry and improve sleep or mood.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Nancy will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they will pick methods and adjust them over time so the work fits daily life and feels useful.

Online sessions come in several formats to match practical needs. Video calls allow real-time interaction similar to in-person work. Phone sessions can be simpler when video isn’t ideal. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or use shorter, focused communication during busy days. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules.
