About Nancy

Nancy Plancarte is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in California. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Nancy emphasizes building self-love and clearer communication to support change.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide practical work in sessions. That often looks like identifying unhelpful patterns, practicing new ways to talk and listen, and developing coping steps for social anxiety and phobia. Sessions are goal-focused and paced to each person.

02

How Nancy works

Nancy pays attention to relationship dynamics and family-related concerns. She helps people sort through communication problems and work toward forgiveness when that is their priority. The aim is to strengthen how someone connects with themselves and others.

Her style is collaborative and strength-based. She works alongside clients to name priorities and try practical tools rather than only talking about problems. Over time, clients build skills to handle stress and reduce anxiety symptoms.

With six years of clinical experience, Nancy brings a grounded and empathetic presence to sessions. She aims to help people make steady progress and feel more capable in everyday life.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical skills and behavior changes that move well to online formats. For example, focused skill-building work involves practicing communication strategies, rehearsing difficult conversations, and getting feedback to improve how someone speaks and listens. That approach helps with relationship concerns and communication problems. Another common approach targets social anxiety and phobia by breaking down feared situations into small steps and trying gradual exposures or coping exercises. Online sessions can include role-play, planning, and troubleshooting so the person can test new responses between meetings. Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods to keep using. Online therapy offers practical benefits like flexibility and easier scheduling. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when bandwidth and camera time work well. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins and useful when camera time or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, immediate support between sessions, and when writing feels easier for the client.
