About Nancy

Nancy Drose is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people managing stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and relationship or family challenges.

Background and approach

With nine years of practice in South Carolina, she focuses on practical strategies and compassionate support to help clients navigate life transitions, grief, trauma, and everyday struggles like sleep disruption, anger, and self-esteem concerns. She frames work around each person's priorities and strengths rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Her style blends acceptance, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral techniques to help clients build coping skills, reduce unhelpful patterns, and reconnect with what matters to them. Nancy also draws on dialectical and client-centered methods to address impulsivity, communication problems, codependency, and blended family or caregiver stress.

She aims to create a collaborative space where clients can explore attachment or abandonment issues, process guilt and shame, and develop realistic, actionable steps toward improved functioning and relationships.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and take mindful action toward those values; it often involves learning to notice thoughts and emotions without getting stuck and can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors through structured techniques and practical homework, which can be effective for mood concerns, sleep problems, and stress. Mindfulness-based methods teach present-moment awareness and self-regulation skills that support emotional balance and impulse control.

Selecting the right approach is collaborative. The therapist works with each person to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time so therapy reflects the client's needs rather than a fixed protocol.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain continuity during life changes. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver skill-building exercises, reflective conversations, and structured interventions in ways that accommodate different communication styles and daily routines.
