About Nancy

Nancy Purohit is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD-related concerns, and LGBTQ+-related issues. Young adult issues are listed among her focus areas, so she often supports people navigating early-adult transitions such as school, work, and identity questions.

She helps people with relationship concerns and parenting challenges by using clear, practical strategies. Sessions address coping with life changes, grief, trauma and abuse, and anger. She also supports those dealing with self-esteem, guilt, shame, and challenges around gender dysphoria and non-monogamous relationships.

Nancy uses a mix of approaches that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She aims to teach skills that can be used between sessions, such as grounding techniques, thought tracking, and values-based action planning.

Her background includes a decade of work with diverse clients in South Carolina. She frames therapy as a collaborative effort and focuses on concrete steps rather than abstract theory. This includes practical planning for career questions, managing impulsivity, and reducing overwhelming stress.

People often start by describing what feels most urgent. From there she helps set short-term goals and skills to practice. If you are sorting through early-adult choices, parenting strain, or mood and anxiety symptoms, she offers straightforward support to help you move forward.

How her approaches guide online work

Nancy commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in session. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. CBT examines patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical ways to reframe thoughts and test new behaviors.

She treats the choice of approach as a collaborative decision. Early sessions are used to identify your goals and try methods that fit your needs. She will adjust the plan based on what helps most, combining skills training, reflection, and practical planning.

The practical benefits of online therapy depend on the session formats available for her practice. Please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, shorten check-ins on a work break, or avoid travel time. Therapists often use meetings to practice skills, review homework, and plan next steps in ways that translate to everyday life.
