About Nancy

Nancy Purohit is a licensed professional counselor with ten years of experience helping people navigate stressful life moments. She supports individuals facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, work-related stress, and challenges tied to ADHD. She also offers understanding around LGBTQ+ concerns, parenting struggles, grief, and the strain that comes with big life changes.

Nancy uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She meets people where they are and focuses on small, manageable steps. Conversations center on what feels most urgent and what can change in day-to-day routines.

Her clinical work draws on approaches that teach skills for handling thoughts, emotions, and choices. Sessions may include looking at patterns that keep problems going, trying new ways of responding, and clarifying values to guide decisions. The emphasis is on tools clients can use between meetings.

Nancy has worked with adults across diverse backgrounds and perspectives. She aims to create a space where people feel heard and respected while they sort through career concerns, identity questions, and life purpose. Her goal is to help clients build more confidence in coping with everyday demands.

If someone is ready to begin, Nancy encourages a simple first step of signing up and completing a short matching questionnaire. That starts the process of identifying goals and setting a schedule that fits each person's life.

How Nancy’s approaches translate to online work

Nancy uses methods that teach practical skills and clarify what matters most. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting stuck and focus on values-driven actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches tools to change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative work. The therapist will help clients decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they set priorities, try strategies, and adjust the plan when needed to match progress and life demands.

Confirm the current session options before booking to know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to continue work between appointments using worksheets, skills practice, and agreed-upon tasks that support daily life.
