About Nancy

Nancy Huus is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience in Montana. She helps people cope when life gets hard, especially around stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and self-esteem. Her work often involves practical steps to handle day-to-day pressure and rebuild after painful events.

Her style is warm and straightforward. She focuses on helping people strengthen coping skills, improve communication, and reconnect with a sense of purpose. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm and increase clarity about next steps in life.

Nancy draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person’s needs. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice and change unhelpful thinking. She brings attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and behavior.

She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy to help people clarify what matters most and take actions that match their values. Jungian and client-centered perspectives inform longer-term exploration of meaning and personal patterns when that work is helpful.

Nancy has worked with people facing transitions such as caregiving strain, adoption and foster care concerns, aging issues, and recovery from addiction. She also supports those dealing with family of origin wounds, abandonment, and blended family challenges. Her aim is to offer steady support while people learn practical ways to move forward.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people get clear about what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for handling anxiety, stress, and life transitions by focusing on action rather than getting stuck in painful thoughts. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions; it can help people change patterns that cause repeated pain in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help the client choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can shift over time as progress is made or new issues appear.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not detailed here. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, allow a quieter check-in on a lunch break, or remove travel time. Ask about current session options when you schedule so you can pick what works best for your routine and communication needs.
