About Nancy

Nancy Bevins is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in West Virginia with ten years of experience. She works with adults who struggle with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, and codependency among other challenges.

Nancy treats mood issues such as anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive tendencies, and bipolar concerns. She believes clients bring important knowledge about themselves and that therapy works best when that knowledge is combined with professional skills. Sessions are a collaborative effort rather than a one-way process.

Her approach is practical and goal-focused. She draws on client-centered methods to follow what the person brings to the room. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and practice different behaviors. Solution-Focused Therapy helps people set small, achievable goals and notice progress.

Nancy’s background includes a B.A. and a Master’s degree from Lindsey Wilson College in Columbia, Kentucky. She is enrolled in a Doctorate in Psychology program at Capella University. She holds LPC credentials in West Virginia and Virginia.

In sessions she combines listening with concrete techniques. That might mean mapping patterns that keep someone stuck, trying a new coping skill in session, or planning a short experiment to test a different way of acting. The work tends to be direct and practical, with attention to the client’s values and daily life.

People who prefer straightforward discussion and step-by-step problem solving may find her style fits. She works in English and does not take international clients.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what the person brings up. Online sessions using this approach usually center on the client’s concerns and priorities, with the therapist reflecting and asking questions to clarify what matters most.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is about spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. In an online setting CBT sessions often include concrete exercises, worksheets, and short behavioral experiments that can be tried between meetings to address anxiety, mood, or codependency patterns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. When used online, DBT-style skills work may focus on short practice tasks, grounding techniques, and role-playing boundary-setting in real-life scenarios.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options with each person and decide together which methods to try based on goals and preferences. That collaborative selection helps keep sessions focused and useful.

Please confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow quicker check-ins, or reduce the need to travel to an appointment. Ask about format details when scheduling to make sure they fit your day and technical needs.
