About Nelly
Dr. Nelly Gregorian-DeLeon is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 15 years of clinical experience who practices from North Carolina.
Background and approach
She holds LMFT credentials and has worked across multiple states and cultures, which informs her sensitivity to diverse life stories and backgrounds. Her work often responds to life transitions, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety, and caregiving stress, and she draws on a range of therapeutic ideas to meet each person where they are.
Her style is warm, empathic, and nonjudgmental, and she emphasizes honoring each client’s unique narrative. She uses approaches tailored to specific challenges, combining cognitive, existential, narrative, and depth-oriented perspectives when helpful.
Dr. Gregorian-DeLeon also has substantial experience with domestic and sexual abuse survivors and with people navigating high-conflict relationships, offering skills for communication, conflict resolution, and coping with loss.
Clients who seek practical tools alongside reflective exploration may find her blend of techniques useful, whether they are addressing anxiety, stress, self-esteem, parenting challenges, or major life changes. She welcomes international clients and provides services in English, Armenian, and Persian.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Dr. Gregorian-DeLeon often blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to address practical problems and personal meaning. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Client-centered work emphasizes empathy and validation, helping clients explore their values and emotions in a supportive, nonjudgmental space.She treats the selection of an approach as a collaborative process. The therapist and client work together to identify goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust strategies over time so the care aligns with the client’s preferences and life circumstances.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for differing schedules and needs. These formats make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals without travel, and they allow treatment to continue across geographic boundaries, including for international clients. Many people find this range of options helps them maintain consistency in their work on relationships, trauma recovery, coping skills, and life transitions.
