About Nancy
Nancy Neukomm is an Illinois licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with 19 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, relationship and self-esteem struggles. She also supports those coping with ADHD, addictions, grief, trauma and life changes.
She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Nancy uses steps people can try between meetings. She listens closely and helps clients notice patterns that keep problems going.
She encourages small, achievable goals so change feels manageable.
Background and approach
Her background includes work in shelters, prison ministry settings, and community food pantries. Nancy has led counseling programs, supervised other counselors, and runs a independent practice while supervising an intern. That mix gives her experience with one-on-one and group work.
In the therapy room she blends client-centered conversation with cognitive behavioral techniques and emotion-focused work. She also draws on solution-focused and mindfulness strategies when those fit a person’s needs. Sessions aim to build skills for handling strong feelings and improving communication.
People who choose her can expect a respectful, down-to-earth style. She uses concrete tools for stress management and encourages reflection between sessions. Her approach is collaborative - she and the client decide what to try next as progress happens.

How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person’s experience and priorities. In practice this means the therapist listens closely and helps clients choose goals that matter to them, which is helpful for relationship stress and self-esteem concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It is useful for anxiety, panic, anger, and depression because it teaches concrete skills people can practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nancy will collaborate with each person to decide whether a client-centered conversation, CBT skill work, or emotion-focused techniques best fit their needs and goals. That choice can shift over time as progress and priorities change.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. Video calls let people read facial cues and practice communication skills in real time. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be a quicker check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for short updates, homework check-ins, or when writing out thoughts feels easier. Together these options offer flexibility and make it simpler to keep momentum between sessions.
