Nancy Drose, LISW-CP

Nancy Drose is a licensed social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps that can make daily life feel more manageable. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping clients notice what matters and act on it.

She uses approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness to guide work on emotions and behavior. Sessions often include learning new coping skills, practicing ways to change unhelpful thoughts, and developing clearer communication habits. The goal is to build small routines that add up to steadier days.

With nine years of experience, Nancy draws on a mix of client-centered listening and structured tools. She pays attention to patterns tied to attachment, abandonment, codependency, and commitment issues. She also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, sleep problems, anger, and challenges tied to parenting or blended-family dynamics.

Her practice in South Carolina includes helping with career stress, coping with life changes, and difficulties linked to ADHD symptoms. Nancy emphasizes collaboration - she and the client agree on priorities and practical steps to try between sessions.

To start, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and specifics about scheduling and formats should be confirmed during the matching process.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and identify personal values to guide action. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and problems that recur despite repeated coping attempts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and testing unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep issues by teaching clear strategies to try between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness exercises to reduce reactivity and support emotion regulation, which can benefit stress, anger, and attention difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nancy collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and daily life. She will check in about what feels useful and adapt the plan as progress is made or priorities change.

Specific session formats should be confirmed during the matching and scheduling process. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, childcare, or school by removing travel time. It also lets clients use shorter check-ins when a full session feels like too much, or opt for video when nonverbal feedback is helpful. Before booking, confirm which formats are offered so sessions match your schedule and preferences.
