My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in humor in treatment as well. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and dialectal behavioral. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. My hours are 8 am to 4pm Monday through Friday . I have different hours for sessions and those include nights and weekends. Please visit my schedule. I have times and days blocked out for those who need special times like early morning, evenings and weekends. Please ask so I can open an appointment. I am very accommodating to scheduling.

Nancy is like a best friend, a parent, a guide, a teacher and a therapist. She’s easy to get to know, she provides practical advice during every session and she follows up on longer-term challenges, even when I don’t bring it up. We have fun talking about life and coming up with ways to change my view and my actions to improve my experience.

I feel heard. Still learning about each other. But getting there
Written on Aug 25, 2022 after therapy with Nancy for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, lgbt, trauma and abuse, grief, and coping with life changes
To be honest I was skeptical of therapy when my friend suggested I meet with Nancy. From our first meeting she made me feel comfortable and heard. Her method of using tools, homework, and exercises helps you to feel like you are improving week by week. She is compassionate and understanding. She let me know upfront that working through my trauma was going to be hard and she was right, it was hard. But she was also right there helping guide me to a place of healing. Every week felt like we were moving closer to my goals and looking back, we were. It's been about a year and I can honestly say that Nancys help changed my life. I used to get overwhelmed and lash out or freeze. Now I am able to evaluate what is happening and calmly respond. I am much better at self care and that makes me better at caring for my family. If you are looking for someone who will help you do the work, I can't recommend Nancy enough!

Finding a right therapist has been the longest journey for me. I have never felt like I “clicked” with anyone until I found Nancy Reali. I am so thankful for every session I’ve had with her. She has helped me learn things about myself that has greatly improved my anxiety, PTSD, and childhood trauma. She is so genuine, caring, knowledgeable and an overall amazing therapist!!

Nancy is fantastic, the cost of the therapy and typically only being able to schedule 2 a month when the cost is more than 2 in person sessions with my insurance it’s rough.

I absolutely love Nancy! The first therapist I was paired with did not mesh well with me!

My first attempt at counseling did not go as I imagined and unfortunately I did not feel very comfortable with or confident that the counselor I had was a good fit for me. However, I did not want to give up so I did what was necessary to get paired with a different counselor; that is when I was paired with Nancy Reali.
I must say that Nancy makes counseling very easy for me! I look forward to having my counseling sessions with her! I’m able to be very open and honest, knowing that no matter the situation or topic being discussed, Nancy will hear me and give me great healthy advice. I also love that Nancy gives me great tools to help me, help myself , on this journey called life!
I can tell that Nancy is a sweet and genuine person that truly wants to help me. I definitely recommend and speak highly of her!

Nancy is awesome!!!!! Helping people is not just a job for her but a passion. She genuinely cares about each and every person she helps. She respects you for you no matter how different you are from what most would consider normal. I was fearful of being judged because I don't live a normal life, but there was no reason to worry. Nancy accepted my life from day one. I honestly can't say enough good things about her. If you want someone who truly cares and wants what's best for you Nancy Reali is the person to talk too!!!!

Nancy has been really good as my counselor! I'm trying to get approved for more sessions since I should have had a 5th one but the BetterHelp platform thinks I already had it and is asking for payment. It won't even let me message her so I'm leaving a review to let you know. Sorry! I was ready for the session and logged in and it really wouldn't let me continue or even communicate without putting in payment. I'll be trying to get re-approved and reschedule. Sorry for the missed session!

Nancy Reali understands trauma and has a genuine interest in supporting me. She knows her stuff and is a sincere listener. So far, she has helped me understand my why. She made me feel confident that counseling is going to help me to feel like a more complete person and unbury issues that I've buried my whole life. My hope is that this will help me live a more joyful life and I believe Nancy would be the best person to help me in this process.

Nancy is unlike any therapist I’ve ever had. She not only listens, but digs down deep to the main thing that’s been going on in your life. She can find patterns in you that you haven’t understood yourself, and will help guide you in the right direction. She challenges me to get outside my box and ask questions. She is the most incredible therapist and person I’ve ever met. I absolutely love her and recommend her 100 percent!
