Nancy Lopez

Nancy Lopez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with three years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, life changes, self-esteem concerns, and questions about life purpose. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

Nancy helps people clarify immediate problems and decide what to try next. She often focuses on practical steps clients can test between meetings. She also addresses communication difficulties, caregiver stress, body image, and issues related to immigration and multicultural concerns.

Her style blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused techniques. That means Nancy pays attention to thoughts and behaviors, helps boost motivation for change, and looks for small, usable solutions that move someone forward. Conversations are straightforward and centered on what a person wants to accomplish next.

Nancy also supports people dealing with panic attacks, mood disorders, self-harm thoughts, and end-of-life caregiving stresses. She works with people facing prejudice or discrimination and with women navigating sexuality and self-love questions. Her approach aims to make complex problems feel more manageable.

To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How her approaches translate to online work

CBT focuses on noticing thoughts and testing different behaviors. Online sessions can include keeping simple thought records and trying short behavioral experiments between meetings to see what helps reduce anxiety or lift mood.

Motivational Interviewing is centered on building a person's own reasons to change. In remote sessions this looks like guided conversations that make next steps feel possible and realistic, especially when someone is unsure what matters next.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical changes that quickly improve day-to-day life. Online check-ins can focus on what worked during the week and what to try next, which keeps momentum steady.

Nancy will work with each person to decide which approaches make the most sense for their goals. That choice is collaborative and can be adjusted over time based on what someone wants to get out of sessions.

Session format options are not listed in the provided biography, so confirm current online session methods before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work, quieter schedules, and caregiving duties, or useful when they prefer shorter check-ins or not being on camera. These practical benefits can help therapy fit into a busy life without rearranging everything.
