Nancy Truett , LPC

Nancy Truett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Tennessee with more than two decades of experience. She brings a background in counseling, substance abuse treatment, and college counseling to her work. Nancy centers her practice on women's issues, especially concerns linked to abuse and trauma. She uses simple, direct language in sessions and focuses on practical steps people can try between meetings.

Her training and roles have included work in agencies, private practice, K-12 settings, and college counseling. That range means she is used to helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and life changes. She draws on tools from cognitive behavioral approaches, client-centered care, and narrative methods to tailor sessions to each person.

Nancy also incorporates trauma-focused methods when needed and pays close attention to how past relationships shape current patterns. She often brings arts-based ideas from her literature and creative-writing background into counseling exercises. This can help people express difficult feelings in ways other than talk.

Therapy with her typically moves at the client's pace. She emphasizes clear goals, step-by-step plans, and regular check-ins about progress. People who want practical guidance for issues like codependency, parenting stress, eating and body concerns, or career stress may find this approach useful.

With 23 years in the field, she blends clinical experience and educational research in her work. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It involves listening without judgment, reflecting what is said, and helping people find their own solutions. This approach is useful for stress, relationship concerns, and self-esteem issues.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. In sessions, people learn practical skills to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

EMDR is a trauma-focused approach that helps people process painful memories and reduce their emotional intensity. It is often used when trauma or abuse memories continue to cause strong reactions in daily life.

Nancy will work collaboratively to find which approach or mix of approaches fits best. She discusses goals and preferences, then adjusts methods as work progresses so clients feel the plan fits their needs.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in fits a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send messages between sessions or check in without scheduling a full call. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy lives.
