Nancy Drose , LISW-CP

Nancy Drose is a licensed social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She sees individuals who are facing parenting and family challenges, grief, trauma, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, career stress, and ADHD. Nancy uses straightforward, supportive conversations to help people sort feelings and decide next steps.

She draws on several practical approaches to tailor sessions to each person's needs. Nancy offers tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and from mindfulness to build present-moment skills. She also incorporates acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and encourage action toward what matters.

Sessions focus on skills people can use between meetings. Nancy teaches breathing and grounding techniques for intense moments, communication skills for difficult conversations, and behavior strategies for daily routines. She aims for clear steps clients can try right away rather than long explanations.

With nine years of practice as an LISW-CP - licensed independent social worker clinical practice in South Carolina - she blends experience with a calm, patient style. Nancy explains things simply and checks in about what is working as therapy progresses.

People often come for help with attachment, codependency, blended family issues, abandonment, foster care and adoption concerns, or managing caregiver stress. She supports those dealing with impulsivity, guilt, shame, commitment difficulties, and problems with control or communication.

Approaches adapted for online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps consistent with those values. It can be useful for managing anxiety, depression, and life changes by focusing action on meaningful goals rather than avoiding difficult feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy identifies patterns of thought and behavior that feed distress and replaces them with more helpful habits. It works well for stress, anxiety, sleep problems, and mood shifts by offering concrete tools to practice between sessions.

Nancy treats choosing the right approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels doable, then adjust techniques as therapy unfolds. That means trying methods, checking what helps, and shifting course when needed.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversation, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be used for quick check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to schedule sessions around work, childcare, or busy days while still practicing the same therapeutic skills.
