Nora Church , LPC, LMHC

Nora Church is a licensed counselor who brings a focused, compassionate approach to working with children, families, and adults facing loss, trauma, and complex life transitions. With 10 years of clinical experience, she combines counseling and case management skills to support people dealing with grief, addiction, parenting challenges, emotional or physical abuse, and the special needs of families navigating foster care, adoption, or raising a child with a disability. She has experience with school-based and day treatment settings and often works with parents to strengthen caregiving strategies and family functioning.

Nora specializes in grief therapy for children and families, a focus she developed during graduate training and through ongoing practice. She addresses a broad range of concerns - from depression, anxiety, and trauma to relationship, career, and identity issues - tailoring interventions to each person or family. Her work also includes support for ADHD, stress, compassion fatigue, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, and parenting and intimacy-related problems.

As a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and licensed mental health counselor (LMHC), Nora holds formal credentials to provide professional counseling services. She listens closely to each person and offers a respectful, nonjudgmental space where individuals can explore their stories at a pace that feels right for them. Nora focuses on collaboration and practical steps toward a fuller, more supported life, guiding clients as they build insight, skills, and resilience.

Therapeutic approaches and online care with Nora Church

Nora integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape present patterns and helps clients rebuild safety and connection in relationships - it is helpful for attachment issues, family difficulties, and relationship repair. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's own experience and priorities, offering empathetic listening and support so people can discover their values and strengths - it is well suited to grief, life transitions, and self-esteem concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical strategies for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with difficult emotions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Nora works collaboratively with each person or family to understand goals, preferences, and needs, and she adapts methods over time so the treatment fits the client rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allow for flexible scheduling and continuity of care. These formats make it easier for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or mobility limitations to access licensed professionals and therapists and to stay connected to support between sessions.
