About Nancy

Nancy Elliot is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 30 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, and life changes. Her style is compassionate and practical, aimed at people who want clear goals and steady progress.

She has long experience supporting people through trauma, addictions, self-esteem concerns, and caregiver or compassion fatigue. Nancy pays attention to the emotional patterns that show up in midlife, aging, and times of transition. She also supports those dealing with cancer, divorce, blended family issues, and other major adjustments.

Nancy uses approaches that focus on values, mindful awareness, and skills practice. She helps clients identify what matters most and then build small, doable habits to move toward those values. She also teaches practical tools for managing distress, improving communication, and reducing unhelpful thinking.

Sessions emphasize real-world steps and honest conversation. People often leave with concrete strategies for setting boundaries, coping with loss, and handling anger or overwhelming stress. The work balances emotional processing with problem solving.

Based in Texas, Nancy brings three decades of counseling experience to each session. She describes her work as collaborative and faith-informed, and she supports people who want an active, goal-oriented path forward. If living with health challenges is part of a person’s story, she includes that context when planning care.

Approaches you can use in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values. It helps when people feel stuck or aimless and want a clearer sense of purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and problem-solving everyday challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and current needs. That may mean combining elements from different approaches and adjusting plans as progress is made.

Confirm the specific session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people continue care during periods of illness or caregiving, and it makes it simpler to attend from different locations when life requires flexibility.
