About Nanette
She aims to create an open space where clients can say what they really feel. Sessions focus on honest conversation without judgment. Nanette encourages small steps that build confidence and forward movement.
Her work draws on several approaches, including cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, psychodynamic ideas, and trauma-focused methods. She uses these tools to help people notice patterns, manage strong emotions, and develop new ways of coping.
Common topics she addresses include attachment concerns, communication problems, codependency, caregiver stress, and questions about life purpose. She also supports people connected to intellectual disability and those navigating multicultural issues.
Nanette takes a collaborative stance in therapy. She and the client plan goals together and choose methods that fit the person’s needs. International clients may be accepted, and sessions are offered in English.

How therapy approaches translate to online sessions
Nanette uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based work to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and practice new habits. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that keep stress and anxiety going. Mindfulness Therapy teaches skills to calm the body and stay present, which can help with anxiety and grief.Choosing the right approach is part of the process and is done together. The therapist will ask about your goals, what has or hasn’t helped in the past, and your preferences. Together you’ll decide which methods to try and adjust them as needed.
The original profile does not specify which online formats are offered, so please confirm session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists generally adapt tools like CBT worksheets and mindfulness practices so they work well in remote appointments.
