About E.
E. Troy Nielsen is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Florida with 20 years of professional experience. He works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, and depression. He also addresses concerns related to adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, family problems, and substance use.
Troy focuses on clear, practical conversation. He uses straightforward methods to help people spot patterns of thinking and behavior that keep them stuck. Sessions often include learning new skills, testing small changes between meetings, and reviewing how those changes felt in daily life.
He commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. That approach is often applied to anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors to build coping tools and change unhelpful thinking.
Over two decades Troy has worked in clinical settings where clients needed active problem-solving and concrete steps. He aims to be respectful and sensitive in sessions while helping people set realistic goals. The emphasis is on practical strategies people can use outside therapy.
Troy will discuss a plan that fits a person's current situation and goals. He asks about daily routines, stressors, and what the client hopes to change. From there he and the client track progress and adjust the approach as needed.
How Troy uses CBT in online sessions
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another. It helps people identify patterns of thinking that increase anxiety or low mood and teaches practical strategies to test and change those patterns. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and problems with substance use.In session Troy may outline specific skills to try between meetings, such as short behavioral experiments or thought records. These homework tasks are concrete ways to see whether different actions or perspectives make a real difference in daily life. The therapist reviews results together and adjusts the plan based on what works for the client.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Troy will work with the client to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences, and he revisits that choice as progress is made. Clients set priorities and the therapist offers tools and feedback to help meet those goals.
