About Nancy
Nancy Drose is a licensed social worker (LISW-CP) practicing in South Carolina who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. She focuses on clear, practical steps that make day-to-day life easier. Her style is warm and direct, aimed at helping clients feel understood and able to act.
Nancy uses a mix of well-established approaches to guide sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and create new behavior patterns. Mindfulness and acceptance-based methods are used to help people tolerate tough feelings without feeling overwhelmed. Dialectical skills may be included for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when those tools fit the situation.
With nine years of clinical experience, Nancy has worked with people dealing with trauma, grief, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, and attention concerns such as ADHD. She also addresses adoption and foster care issues, attachment questions, abandonment, and blended family concerns when those topics are relevant to a client's story.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Nancy helps clients set small goals, practice new skills between meetings, and track progress. She emphasizes communication skills, boundary setting, and coping techniques that people can use right away.
People seeking help with career stress, caregiver strain, codependency, or life transitions may find her approach useful. Nancy aims to create a steady, collaborative space where clients can work through painful experiences and build routines that support emotional health.
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying out new behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It often helps with anxiety, sleep issues, and mood concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches skills to attend to the present moment and calm the body and mind, which supports stress management and emotion regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nancy will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She may combine strategies from different approaches and adjust them over time based on what helps most.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online work can make scheduling easier and fit into busy days. It can also allow for shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and make it simpler to continue care during life transitions. Licensed professionals can adapt these therapeutic approaches effectively to remote sessions, focusing on practical skills, tracking progress, and setting real-world goals.
