About Nancy
Nancy Davis is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on practical support for parents and people navigating family life. She speaks plainly and listens closely so clients can say what matters. She aims to create a calm space where worries about stress, relationships, sleep, parenting, or mood can be talked through without judgment.
Taking a first step toward change can feel hard, and she offers steady support along the way.
Background and approach
With 14 years of experience, Nancy uses straightforward tools and honest feedback to help clients find what works for them. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s pace, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and habits, and EMDR for those coping with traumatic memories.
She also uses the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are part of the concern and mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity. Nancy explains options in plain language and helps people pick an approach that fits their situation and goals. She pays attention to patterns that come from family of origin, blended family issues, or difficult life changes like divorce and separation.
She can guide conversations about communication problems, control issues, forgiveness, and rebuilding trust. Sessions can focus on concrete steps, like adjusting routines for better sleep, or deeper work such as processing grief, trauma, or ongoing anxiety. Her style combines warmth with clear, direct guidance so clients leave with something they can try between sessions.
Nancy is licensed in Texas as an LMFT.
How therapeutic approaches meet online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s goals. The therapist follows the client’s lead, helps clarify concerns, and supports choices that feel right. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and change unhelpful patterns.Nancy views finding the right method as a shared process. She will talk with clients about their needs and preferences and recommend approaches accordingly. Together they decide whether to try skill-based work, trauma-focused techniques, or relationship-focused methods and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions can happen by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match how people want to connect. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy around school, work, and family life. It also allows short check-ins by chat or text when a quick plan or encouragement is needed between longer sessions. Licensed professionals can use these formats to combine talk, skill practice, and brief support so therapy feels usable in day-to-day life.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
EMDR
A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
