About me

I am licensed in California with 23 + years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients both adults and teens, with lgbtq+ related issues, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I also enjoy working with couples working on relationship issues. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Nancy Deer. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

We have had a few sessions so far and I love being able to open up and speak with her. She is a great listener, and really is starting to help me understand who I am a little bit more.

Written on Mar 18, 2024 after therapy with Nancy for 1 month on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, lgbt, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, anger management, career difficulties, and coping with life changes
