About Nancy

Nancy Elliot is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with 30 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, parenting strain, and major life changes. She also helps with trauma and abuse, self-esteem, addictions, anger, and compassion fatigue.

Her work focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other methods to notice unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that keep problems going. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with clear skills to practice at home.

Nancy pays attention to midlife and aging concerns and to the stresses of caregiving and health crises such as cancer. She supports people facing family-of-origin issues, blended family challenges, divorce and separation, and codependency. She also works with issues around abandonment, control, and commitment problems.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, client-centered methods, and mindfulness practices. That mix helps with emotion regulation, clearer communication, and values-based action. The focus is on what clients want to change and small, testable steps toward those goals.

Nancy is based in Texas and conducts work in English. She uses a subscription-based session structure that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.

How her approaches translate to online care

Online sessions draw on a few focused methods to keep work concrete. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people try small behavior changes to see what helps. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that match personal values. Client-Centered Therapy places the client's goals and perspectives at the center of each conversation and supports problem solving from the client’s point of view.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nancy will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences, and she adjusts plans as progress and new needs appear. That means sessions may include skills practice, short experiments, and focused check-ins on what the client wants to change.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available online options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful for fitting therapy into a busy routine, keeping appointments that would otherwise be hard to reach, and allowing shorter check-ins when time is limited. Therapists generally adapt exercises and homework for online use so skills can be practiced between meetings.
