About Nancy

Nancy Neukomm is an LCPC in Illinois who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, depression, ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting struggles, anger, career transitions, bipolar disorder, and other life changes.

Background and approach

She also focuses on matters such as abandonment, blended family dynamics, chronic pain or illness, codependency, communication problems, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD), divorce and separation, feelings of emptiness, family problems, isolation and loneliness, obsessive-compulsive concerns, panic attacks, and social anxiety. With 19 years of experience, Nancy blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered, emotionally-focused, mindfulness-based, and solution-focused methods.

She aims to help clients set achievable milestones and build practical coping skills one step at a time, encouraging self-reflection and stress management between sessions. Her background includes coordinating counseling programs, supervising other counselors, and offering individual and group work in community settings such as shelters, prison ministry programs, and food pantry services.

Nancy maintains a independent practice and supervises an intern from Walden University. Her style is warm, respectful, and problem-solving oriented, inviting clients to explore strengths and try creative approaches toward clearer goals and improved daily functioning.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support



Nancy integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy into online work. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that contribute to distress and teaching practical strategies to change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and obsessive-compulsive concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening, collaboration, and helping clients find their own solutions by drawing on personal strengths and values.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Nancy works with each person to clarify goals, try interventions, and adjust methods based on what is most helpful, combining techniques when appropriate so the plan reflects the client's needs and preferences.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain momentum between appointments and to access care from home or elsewhere, while allowing therapists to use CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and emotionally-focused conversations in ways that fit the client's life.
