Nanette Nelson, a licensed clinical mental health counselor (MA, NCC, LCMHC), has a passion for listening to the stories of others. As a skilled Narrative Therapist, she focuses on understanding the unique narratives of her clients, emphasizing their experiences and identifying areas that may not be serving them well. By collaborating with clients, Nanette helps to reframe their stories, particularly during significant life events such as stress, transitions, or grief, revealing aspects of their lives that may have been influenced by external pressures. With a diverse background in various therapeutic modalities—including trauma-focused, cognitive-behavioral, dialectical, family systems, and couples therapy—Nanette adapts her approach to best suit the needs of her clients. With 25 years of experience navigating the challenges of being a mother to a child with special needs, she offers invaluable insights as a trained parent advocate and facilitator of support groups for parents. Her primary goal is to assist clients in achieving their personal and family objectives, and she remains ready to listen when they are prepared to share their stories.
