Nancy Huus, LCSW

Nancy Huus is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience helping people through hard transitions. She practices in Montana and focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, grief, and coping with life changes. Nancy draws on several therapeutic approaches to match each person's needs.

Her work centers on practical steps people can use between sessions. She listens for the patterns in thoughts and habits that keep problems going. Then she helps clients try small changes that fit daily life, like new ways to handle anxiety or communicate needs.

Nancy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive techniques to address unhelpful thinking and avoidance. She also draws from attachment-based and client-centered approaches to strengthen relationships and self-understanding. Jungian ideas may be woven in when they help someone reflect on deeper themes.

She often supports people dealing with trauma, abandonment, family of origin issues, and substance concerns. Nancy also works with caregiver stress, blended family challenges, and those facing aging or life transitions. The focus is on building coping skills and regaining a sense of direction.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to what each person needs. Nancy aims to create an accepting space where clients can try new ways of thinking and acting. She helps people turn insights into everyday habits that feel manageable.

How ACT, CBT, and Attachment Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for anxiety, grief, and getting unstuck during life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying new behaviors to reduce distress and improve everyday functioning. It often helps with stress, social anxiety, and building coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current patterns and communication, which can be useful for people dealing with abandonment, attachment issues, or family of origin struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. That process can include trying different techniques and adjusting based on what helps most in day-to-day life.

Confirm the current session options before booking to know which online formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins that align with work or caregiving demands. It can also make some exercises easier to practice between meetings. Discuss format preferences when you schedule so sessions match your routine and goals.
