Nancy Solow

Nancy Solow is a licensed independent clinical social worker with an MA and 27 years of experience in Massachusetts. She has worked extensively with adoption, foster care, and early trauma, and also addresses a wide range of concerns such as grief, depression, anxiety, parenting stress, relationship and family problems, and anger. Nancy writes in a warm, direct way and focuses on practical help for each person who reaches out.

Nancy describes her style as strengths-based and interactive. She listens closely and adapts her methods to a person's needs. Sessions tend to emphasize respect, dignity, and building understanding rather than labels or judgment.

Her background includes work with attachment-related issues and family of origin concerns. She draws on models that focus on relationships and how early experiences shape current feelings and behaviors. That perspective is often useful for people dealing with abandonment, caregiving stress, blended family issues, or intimacy-related problems.

Nancy also uses approaches that look at thoughts and behaviors in the moment, and practices that bring mindful awareness into daily life. Those methods can help with stress, social anxiety, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She blends listening, practical strategies, and feedback to help people take small steps forward.

People who choose Nancy often want a compassionate clinician who will tailor sessions to real goals. She encourages hope and change while acknowledging that progress can take time. To begin, readers should confirm current session options before booking.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape how people connect now. It can help when patterns of closeness, trust, or abandonment feel painful in adult relationships. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on respectful listening and helping people find their own solutions; it is useful when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to think things through. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines thoughts and behaviors to find small, manageable changes that reduce anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Nancy will work together with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. That typically means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time in a collaborative way.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by cutting travel time and allowing scheduling that fits work and family routines. Some approaches translate well to shorter, focused check-ins while others benefit from longer conversations, and Nancy will discuss what works best for each person's needs.
