Nancy is wonderful. I have tried working with multiple counselors and she is the first that I have actually enjoyed and feel like I am getting help. She is great about offering the right amount of bluntness that I need to exam my current beliefs. I would definitely recommend her!

Nancy worked with me by doing the chat sessions due to my being uneasy with phone sessions and such. She provides me with worksheets that help very much and gives me great advice on ways to help me cope with everyday life stressors and such.

Happy you have reached out, I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida as well as a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Georgia. I have been working in the mental health field since 2005 and have worked with many people dealing with relationship issues, depression, anxiety and OCD, stress and trauma, family issues, as well as, working with individuals with addiction.

My counseling style is casual, interactive and thought provoking, using a variety of counseling modalities that will be the best match to you. Not all therapy approaches fit everyone. Therefore, the best therapy approach can be one, or a combination of: cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, person-centered and motivational interviewing styles.

You have taken a very important step! Reaching out to seek additional supports is a strength and a great beginning to feeling better and more fulfilled! Keep in mind, that a healthy therapeutic relationship is essential to reaching your goals. So remember, if, after three sessions you feel I am not a good fit for you, please seek out someone at Betterhelp that might be, this journey is for you. Please remember that if you feel that we are not the right fit.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Best therapist I’ve seen in years! Most professional, thorough and knowledgeable. If you’re on the fence about seeking a good therapist look no further Nancy is incredible. I’m so happy she’s my therapist.

Reviewed February 2022

I only had a few sessions with Nancy during my trial but she was so great! I felt very comfortable from the beginning and was always at ease with her. She was very professional and warm and I would definitely come back to her should I resume using Betterhelp in the future.
