About Nancy

Dr. Nancy Forrest is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 25 years of experience in Pennsylvania. She helps people who struggle with anger, stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, sleep and eating concerns, and other life changes. She also addresses issues connected to trauma, intimacy, self-esteem, career challenges, and mood conditions such as depression and bipolar disorder.

Her practice draws on several ways of working rather than a single method. She uses client-centered ideas to listen and respond to what matters most to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. Jungian ideas shape how she pays attention to personal patterns and deeper themes.

Sessions look at how past hurts and current pressures keep anger and resentment active. She talks through patterns that show up in relationships, work, and parenting. Attention can include emotional reactions, somatic or body-based signs, and spiritual questions when clients raise them.

Therapy is practical and conversational. That can mean learning skills to calm intense reactions, practicing new ways to express needs, and testing small changes between sessions. Hypnotherapy may be offered as one of several tools when appropriate.

People who reach out work on clearer communication, boundaries, and handling triggers with less overwhelm. Dr. Forrest also helps with issues linked to abandonment, adoption and foster care, forgiveness, infidelity, dissociation, and post-traumatic stress. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.

How her approaches translate to online work

Dr. Forrest commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what each person brings, helping them feel understood and seen. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep anger and anxiety active and teaches practical skills to shift them.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work together with clients to choose which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as work progresses.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy week by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or letting someone choose audio over video if that is easier. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises, journaling tasks, and reflective conversations to an online setting to keep progress moving forward.
