About Me

Hey there, I'm Nancy — Licensed Psychotherapist, Certified Grief Educator, and a firm believer in the power of healing through compassion, nervous system awareness, and intentional self-work.

I’ve spent years walking alongside people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in patterns of self-doubt, or lost in the fog of grief. But this work is also deeply personal to me. I know what it’s like to feel consumed by fear, unsure of how to calm your thoughts, or disconnected from the person you used to be.

That’s why I started this work.

You don’t need to have it all together. You don’t have to “think your way out” of anxiety. But you can learn how to regulate your nervous system, shift old beliefs, and reconnect to a sense of calm, clarity, and self-trust.

This isn’t just theory—it’s a blend of lived experience, clinical insight, and evidence-based practices like Polyvagal Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness.

If you’ve been looking for a way to stop spiraling and start healing—you're in the right place.

Let’s take this one small, steady step at a time.
You’re not alone—and I’m so glad you’re here.

My Approach

I believe therapy should feel like a partnership—one where you feel heard, supported, and equipped with real tools to make meaningful changes in your life. Together, we’ll work on:

Reducing anxiety by understanding how your nervous system reacts to stress.

✅ Identifying & setting boundaries that honor your needs without guilt.

✅ Replacing self-doubt with confidence & self-trust.

Healing past wounds that make it hard to say no, ask for what you need, or feel truly seen in relationships.

✅ Guide you through grief processing, helping you navigate loss while rebuilding emotional resilience.

Overcoming depression by understanding how your nervous system reacts to emotional distress.

Therapy with me is warm, engaging, and results-driven. My goal isn’t just to talk about your struggles—it’s to help you create lasting change so you can start living a life that feels good to you.

On a personal note…

When I’m not in session, you can find me hiking with my wife, snuggling with my fur babies, spending time with family, reading self-development books, dipping in a cold plunge, soaking in a sauna, and enjoying coffee shop mornings. I know how important it is to practice what I teach, and I am deeply passionate about helping people break free from the habits and fears that keep them feeling small.
