About Nancy
Nancy Drose is a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) in South Carolina and has nine years of experience. She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, sleep problems, ADHD, and anger. Nancy helps people who are frustrated by recurring outbursts, simmering resentment, or the stress of living with another person's anger.
She uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. Nancy draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thought patterns that feed anger and on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help people notice early signs of rising anger and respond differently.
Nancy also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to clarify personal values and choose actions that align with them. Client-Centered Therapy informs how she listens and reflects what clients are saying to help them find their own solutions. Sessions focus on learning specific skills, practicing them, and adapting strategies to everyday life.
Her background includes working with issues linked to anger, such as communication problems, control issues, impulsivity, codependency, and caregiver stress. She supports people dealing with relationship transitions, divorce and separation, blended family challenges, and workplace frustration.
Practical tasks, short exercises, and behavior-focused steps are common in her work. Nancy asks about what currently triggers a person and then helps set small, doable goals. The aim is steadier reactions, clearer boundaries, and more constructive ways of expressing upset.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when feelings are strong. This approach can be useful for someone who struggles with anger tied to meaning, role changes, or ongoing life stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep anger patterns going. CBT gives concrete tools to test unhelpful thoughts and try different responses in real situations. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and communication; it can be especially helpful for managing intense reactions and impulsivity.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will help figure out which methods suit a person's goals and preferences, and will adjust plans together as progress is made. Sessions are collaborative and focus on practical skill-building and real-life practice.
