About Nancy
Nancy Marts is a licensed clinical social worker with 45 years of experience. She began working with young people and challenging behaviors in 1976 and has kept a broad clinical focus since then. Nancy practices in North Carolina and draws on a long career across medical, hospital, and psychiatric settings.
Her background includes home health and hospice social work, hospital-based trauma, surgery, and orthopedic work, and roles in inpatient, intensive outpatient, and general outpatient psychiatry.
Background and approach
That mix shaped her into a generalist who is comfortable with many kinds of problems. She often helps people who are facing major life transitions and sudden changes. Nancy listens first, then helps people name what feels most difficult.
She works with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, parenting strain, career shifts, and challenges like ADHD and bipolar disorder. She also supports people dealing with aging, caregiving stress, cancer, and end-of-life issues. In sessions she focuses on practical coping skills and gradual change.
She may use talking, structured exercises, problem solving, and mindfulness practices to reduce distress and build new routines. The aim is to find steps that fit a person’s life and goals. Nancy describes therapy as a collaborative journey.
She does not promise instant answers, but offers steady support while people make sense of losses, rework identity after major changes, and try out new ways of coping.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. It helps people clarify their own goals and feel understood before moving into problem solving. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood and teaches concrete skills like activity planning and thought checks to reduce anxiety and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, combines acceptance and change strategies and teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help when feelings are intense.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and make adjustments over time so the plan fits the client’s life.
Online therapy is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging for flexibility. Video can allow face-to-face discussion and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text works for quick check-ins or shorter exchanges. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a workday, to continue care during transitions, or to use a format that feels most comfortable.
