About Nancy

Nancy Purohit is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by change, stress, or anxiety. Her style is direct and encouraging, and she aims to help people take the first steps toward feeling more in control.

She works with individuals facing life transitions, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and issues related to ADHD. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, and concerns connected to gender and sexual identity. Nancy pays attention to how cultural background and personal values shape each person's experience.

Nancy draws on several therapeutic approaches to fit what the person needs. She uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and build committed action. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Client-centered principles guide how she listens and responds in sessions.

Sessions are conversational and practical. Nancy helps people set small, doable goals and practice new skills between meetings. She emphasizes clear steps over jargon, so progress feels tangible and reachable.

With ten years of clinical experience, Nancy brings steady support without overwhelming the process. If you are juggling big changes or ongoing stress, she offers a calm, collaborative space to sort priorities and move forward.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. It can be useful for life transitions, stress, and questions about purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and needs and suggest techniques from ACT, CBT, or client-centered listening to see what fits. This is a collaborative process and can change as goals evolve.

Confirm the therapist's current session formats before booking to learn whether online appointments are an option. Many people appreciate online work because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time, and make it easier to keep regular appointments. If a shorter check-in or audio-only meeting would help you fit therapy into a break at work, discuss those preferences when you schedule so sessions match your daily life.
