About Nancy

Nancy Drose is a licensed independent social worker with clinical practice (LISW-CP) in South Carolina and has nine years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, grief, sleep problems, ADHD, and major life changes. Her work also addresses parenting concerns, family conflict, and career stress.

Her approach is straightforward and skills-based. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and mindfulness practices to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Sessions focus on practical strategies for managing strong emotions, improving communication, and reducing impulsivity.

Nancy often supports people dealing with attachment issues, abandonment, adoption and foster care histories, and blended family challenges. She also helps those facing caregiver stress, codependency, commitment worries, and problems with control or forgiveness. When trauma or abuse is part of the story she incorporates approaches that address symptoms and coping skills.

Clients can expect a mix of talking, skill practice, and short behavioral experiments to test new ways of responding. She pays attention to patterns that fuel resentment, snapping at loved ones, or anger at work, and works on concrete steps to interrupt those cycles.

Her goal is practical: help people find clearer choices in tense moments and build routines that reduce buildup over time. Nancy speaks English and practices in South Carolina as an LISW-CP.

How sessions work

How her approaches work for online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that align with your values; it can help when anger leads to repeated reactive behavior. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for workplace frustration and snapping at loved ones. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for regulating intense emotions and reducing impulsivity. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Nancy will help you identify which methods fit your goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as you try skills and report what helps. Work together to pick strategies that match the situations where anger shows up most. The biography does not specify online session formats, so confirm the exact options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also let you practice skills in the environments where stress happens and bring in real-life examples during conversations.
