About Nancy

Nancy Purohit is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with a decade of experience helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. She works with adults who want practical strategies for everyday struggles, including concerns related to attention and ADHD. Nancy writes in a straightforward way and helps people take small, doable steps forward.

Nancy focuses on issues many clients bring in: relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, anger, career questions, and questions about identity such as LGBT and gender dysphoria matters.

Background and approach

She also supports people coping with trauma, bipolar mood concerns, and the exhaustion that comes from caregiving or compassion fatigue. Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. She listens first, then helps people notice what matters to them and what gets in the way.

Sessions mix talking, skill practice, and concrete plans people can try between visits. Nancy uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered work, along with skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when emotion regulation is needed. She aims to match tools to each person’s goals rather than following a single template.

She practices in South Carolina and conducts sessions in English. Nancy encourages taking the first step and guides people through a steady process of change, one small choice at a time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values, even while difficult thoughts or feelings occur. It is useful for anxiety, stress, life transitions, and motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and attention-related struggles.

Nancy will work with each person to figure out which approach, or blend of approaches, fits best. She treats that fit as a team effort - listening to goals and trying tools, then adjusting based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which skills to prioritize and how to test them in daily life.

Online sessions offer flexibility in how therapy happens. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and guided skill practice. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth or screen time are concerns. Live chat and text-based messaging work for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or step-by-step support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or school schedules and to keep building skills steadily.
