About Nancy
Nancy Higgins is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with six years of experience. She lists addictions and coping with life changes among her primary concerns. She also works with people dealing with forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, life purpose questions, and social anxiety and phobia.
Nancy keeps sessions straightforward and conversational. She prefers direct, person-focused work rather than long lectures or rigid protocols. Conversations are shaped around what the client brings and what feels most helpful in the moment.
Her stated approach blends person-centered methods with trauma-informed perspectives. That means clients can expect a focus on their immediate needs and experiences, alongside attention to how past events affect current behavior and relationships. Nancy works with people who are in recovery and those coping with life transitions.
Sessions often center on practical steps and clear goals. That can include talking through triggers, building new coping strategies, and practicing ways to manage anxiety in social settings. She aims to help people notice small shifts that make daily life easier.
Nancy emphasizes collaboration in planning treatment. She and the client review what’s working and adjust the plan as needed. The overall goal is clearer thinking and greater ability to handle stressful situations as they come up.
How her approaches translate to online work
Person-centered work focuses on the client’s experience in the moment. Online sessions let people bring current problems and get practical feedback during the appointment, such as ways to handle social anxiety or manage urges related to addiction.Trauma-informed care pays attention to how past events affect present behavior and reactions. Remotely, this can mean pacing conversations to the client’s tolerance and checking in often about what feels manageable that day.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and comfort level, and she will adjust the plan based on what helps most in real sessions.
The original biography did not list specific session formats. Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online work can make scheduling easier, help fit therapy into a busy life, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed. Many people find remote sessions reduce travel time and make it simpler to keep regular appointments.
