About Nancy

Nancy Huus is a licensed clinical social worker in Montana with 13 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, self-esteem concerns, and major life changes.

Background and approach

Her work integrates practical strategies with attention to emotional meaning, aiming to help clients move through painful experiences and toward clearer values and goals. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside mindfulness-informed and attachment-based ideas to address unhelpful thinking patterns, relational wounds, and emotional avoidance.

Her style emphasizes empathy and collaboration, offering a steadier, nonjudgmental presence while teaching skills for coping and communication. Nancy also attends to deeper personal themes when helpful, using client-centered and Jungian perspectives to explore identity, meaning, and long-standing patterns rooted in family of origin or attachment history.

She frames therapy as a cooperative process: she listens for what matters to each person, then works with them to develop strategies that fit their life and priorities. Nancy’s practice includes a range of focus areas such as abandonment and attachment issues, caregiver stress, substance concerns, blended family dynamics, and problems with control or commitment.

Her goal is to help clients build practical resilience while reconnecting to inner strengths and values.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Nancy integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and stress, using concrete exercises and experiments that translate well to virtual sessions. ACT emphasizes psychological flexibility through values clarification, mindfulness, and committed action, which can help clients navigate grief, trauma responses, and life transitions.

She also uses attachment-based ideas to explore relational patterns and how early bonds influence present-day interactions, helping clients make sense of recurring themes in relationships. Choosing the right approach is collaborative; she partners with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Nancy is offered through video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing practical options for different schedules and preferences. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life changes, reduce travel time, and allow clients to engage with therapeutic exercises between sessions. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt interventions to these modes so work remains focused and goal-oriented.
