About Nancy
Nancy Hartman is a licensed clinical mental health counselor in North Carolina with 25 years of experience. She focuses on relationships, grief, parenting concerns, self esteem, and coping with life changes. Nancy believes people know their own story and can use their strengths to move forward.
Taking the first step to seek help is seen as an act of courage. Her style is warm and person-centered. She listens first, then helps people name what matters and find practical steps.
How Nancy works
Nancy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside perspectives from attachment theory to understand patterns in relationships and sense of self. She works with people coping with trauma, panic, post-traumatic stress, and the fallout from separation or narcissistic dynamics. She also supports those facing caregiver stress, guilt and shame, body image concerns, and financial or life-purpose worries.
Sessions aim to increase self-understanding and reduce isolation. Nancy integrates religious and spiritual concerns when clients want that included, honoring individual beliefs while focusing on emotional wellbeing. She offers guidance for navigating forgiveness, grief, and major life transitions without pushing a specific outcome.
In session, she helps clients build confidence, improve communication, and manage control issues. Her approach balances compassionate listening with concrete tools people can use between sessions. The goal is clearer thinking, steadier coping, and stronger connections with others and self.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Person-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people discover their own solutions. It helps with self esteem, relationship concerns, and finding direction after loss. Attachment-informed work looks at how early patterns shape current relationships and trust; it can help with abandonment worries, communication problems, and building more stable connections. Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, past experiences, and preferences and then suggest techniques that fit. Together they will try methods and adjust what isn’t working until the best fit emerges. Online therapy with this practice uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people read facial cues and hold deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, real-time support between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to schedule consistent care around work, caregiving, or other demands while keeping therapy practical and accessible.Start online instead of waiting
