About Nancy

Nancy Lopez is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She speaks English and Spanish and practices in California. Her style is straightforward and supportive for people looking for practical change.

Nancy aims to make sessions feel simple and direct. She encourages honest conversation about what is hard right now. Sessions focus on small, doable steps people can try between meetings.

She avoids jargon and keeps plans concrete.

02

How Nancy works

Her approach commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of responding. She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to explore what matters most to each person and to build commitment to change. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set short-term goals and track progress.

Nancy has three years of professional experience as an LCSW in California. That experience includes supporting people facing mood disorders, panic attacks, caregiving stress, immigration concerns, and issues tied to identity and discrimination. She also works with concerns about body image, self-harm thoughts, sexuality, and women’s issues.

In sessions she helps people strengthen communication, cope with grief or hospice-related stress, and find clearer purpose when life feels stuck. Her work is collaborative: she listens first, then helps craft steps that fit each person’s goals and daily life.

Online support options

Practical approaches for online therapy

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try new responses for anxiety, depression, and panic. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person's own reasons for change. It uses guided conversation to boost motivation for steps like managing stress or tackling caregiving demands.

Nancy treats choice of approach as a team decision. She listens to each person’s goals and daily life, then suggests methods to try. Together they decide which interventions fit best and adjust plans as progress is made.

Online work is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video helps keep conversations close to an in-person meeting, phone can be a good shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, accommodate quieter surroundings, or avoid needing to be on camera during every session.
