Nancy Manly, LPC

Nancy Manly is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 21 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, grief, trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, and codependency among other issues. Nancy also supports those coping with chronic illness, caregiving stress, aging-related concerns, career problems, and life transitions.

Her sessions focus on practical skills people can use right away. She blends several evidence-informed methods and aims to help clients change unhelpful thinking, manage strong emotions, and set clearer boundaries. Nancy encourages clients to notice values and take small, steady steps that reflect those values.

Her style is described in client accounts as steady, respectful, and attentive. She works from the view that the person in front of her knows their life best and that therapy is a guided collaboration. Sessions emphasize concrete strategies alongside space to process loss, anger, or confusion.

Nancy combines cognitive-behavioral tools with acceptance-based practices and emotion-focused work. That mix can be useful for people who want both skills training and deeper exploration of relationship patterns or past wounds. She also draws on approaches useful in addiction recovery and in learning to manage overwhelming feelings.

People who come to her often want help saying no, coping with another person's drinking or moods, or untangling persistent people-pleasing habits. The work aims to increase practical coping, strengthen self-regard, and help people make clearer choices about relationships and responsibilities.
