About Nancy
Nancy Purohit is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina with 10 years of practice. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, and relationship concerns. Her focus includes LGBTQ+ related issues, ADHD-related struggles, and life transitions.
She helps people who feel overwhelmed by everyday pressures and parenting responsibilities. Sessions tend to be straightforward conversations that identify what is most urgent and practical next steps. Nancy encourages small, manageable changes rather than big overhauls all at once.
Nancy uses several evidence-based approaches to guide sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered techniques, and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy appear in her work. She adapts these methods into clear, usable strategies for handling anxiety, mood shifts, and conflicts at home.
Her background includes a decade of counseling across diverse settings and with people from many cultural backgrounds. She pays attention to how identity and life stage shape stress and coping. This helps when addressing issues such as postpartum depression, gender dysphoria, grief, or career crossroads.
In practical terms Nancy aims to make therapy fit day-to-day life. That can mean building short skills for emotional regulation, arranging realistic parenting plans, or breaking a larger problem into smaller steps. She asks about what matters most to each person and focuses on workable tools to move forward.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values and taking small committed steps toward what matters. It can help with persistent worry, parenting stress, and life changes by clarifying priorities and practicing actions that align with those priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thought-feeling-behavior cycles and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger to build skills that reduce distress.Nancy treats the choice of approach as a collaborative process. She will work with each person to identify goals, try a method, and adjust based on what feels useful. Clients and Nancy decide together which strategies to keep or change as therapy progresses.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting conversations into busy days and keeping progress moving without long travel. Please confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, since the profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, schedule sessions around parenting or work, or use video when visual cues are helpful. Licensed professionals often blend skills practice, short exercises, and planning between meetings to support day-to-day life.
