Nancy Lee, LCSW
Her expertise extends to treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression, with a particular focus on those dealing with grief and midlife transitions. Nancy’s approach is informed by her background in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which allows her to provide effective strategies for managing a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges. She also offers individual therapy and group therapy, as well as support for those navigating complex life stages, such as school avoidance in children and teens, or managing ADHD in adults. Nancy is especially passionate about working with children and adolescents, where she addresses issues such as childhood behavior problems, school avoidance, and the challenges of adolescence.
Her experience in Autism Spectrum Disorders and her understanding of the unique needs of first responders, military personnel, and veterans further underscore her versatility and dedication to serving diverse populations. In addition to these groups, she has significant experience working with women’s issues, offering a safe and supportive environment for those navigating gender-specific challenges.
Beyond her professional life, Nancy's greatest joys are her three grandchildren and her two Morkies, Summer and Brody. Her love for animals and the outdoors is evident in her enthusiasm for horses, a passion she shares with her daughter, a champion jumper. These personal interests not only bring balance to her life but also deepen her ability to connect with clients who share similar joys.
