About Nancy
Dr. Nancy Forrest is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people cope with stress and anxiety. She aims to make therapy clear and practical so parents worried about a child's or their own anxiety can understand the steps ahead.
Sessions are conversational and straightforward, with attention to immediate coping skills as well as deeper patterns. She draws from a mix of approaches, including client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and routines.
Background and approach
Jungian ideas guide exploration of personal meaning and recurring life themes. Hypnotherapy and existential perspectives are sometimes used to address core beliefs and life direction. With 25 years of experience, she has supported people through trauma, grief, relationship challenges, intimacy concerns, eating or sleeping problems, and career stress.
She also helps with issues such as abandonment, communication problems, infidelity, and post-traumatic stress. Dr. Forrest pays attention to emotional, physical, and spiritual factors that shape how people cope.
Therapy sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients. Formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Costs vary by location and are billed through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
To get started, a person chooses Start Therapy, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules sessions according to the therapist's availability. The early meetings focus on immediate concerns and on building a plan that fits each person's goals and daily life.
Approaches for online anxiety and life work
Dr. Forrest uses client-centered methods that emphasize listening and collaborating with each person to set goals and pace. This approach suits people who want a gentle, respectful space to talk through worries and decide next steps.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep anxiety or stress going and teaches simple, practical strategies to change them. That approach helps with sleep problems, panic, and daily routines that increase worry.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review what helps most and adjust methods over time based on symptoms, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process aims to match techniques to what each person needs now.
Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow full conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit brief updates, short coaching, or when scheduling makes longer sessions difficult. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping continuity of care.
