Nadly ThompsonLCSW

Nadly Thompson is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on supporting people through stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, and depression. She works with clients who are dealing with life changes, grief, or struggles around body image and eating. Her approach is practical and respectful, and she aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.

With ten years of experience in New York, Nadly adapts conversations and plans to fit each person she meets. She listens first, then helps set realistic goals for mood, motivation, and daily functioning. That might include addressing substance use, process addictions such as gambling or compulsive exercise, or symptoms linked to mood and personality disorders.

Nadly uses client-centered methods to keep the focus on a person's needs. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and DBT skills to manage strong emotions and improve coping. These approaches are described and used in straightforward ways during sessions.

She also supports people facing postpartum depression and pregnancy-related concerns, and offers help for first responder stress and compassion fatigue. Nadly pays attention to identity and relationship questions, including issues important to LGBT people.

Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. She aims to make sessions feel like a collaborative conversation where the client sets the pace and Nadly offers tools, reflection, and planning to move forward.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Nadly integrates client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and DBT skills into sessions in straightforward language. Client-centered Therapy focuses on listening and shaping sessions around each person's priorities; it helps when someone needs space to be heard and to set goals at their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical steps to test and change unhelpful thinking and build new habits for anxiety, depression, and mood issues.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. These tools can be especially helpful for strong emotional reactions, coping with urges, and improving daily routines.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a shared process. Nadly works with clients to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust plans over time. She treats therapy as collaborative and practical, not one-size-fits-all.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are offered. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into busy days, makes shorter check-ins possible, and eases scheduling across commutes or work breaks. Discuss scheduling and format preferences during the matching and first sessions to make sure therapy fits into your life.
