About me
I am a Mental Health and Addiction therapist licensed in Ohio, Michigan and South Carolina with over 15 years of experience . I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including addiction, trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, self harm and family counseling. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I have worked with adolescents, those in addiction, and adults.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in humor in treatment as well. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and dialectal behavioral. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. My hours are 8 am to 4pm Monday through Friday . I have different hours for sessions and those include nights and weekends. Please visit my schedule. I have times and days blocked out for those who need special times like early morning, evenings and weekends. Please ask so I can open an appointment. I am very accommodating to scheduling.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Nancy Reali. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Nancy has been an incredible asset in my personal growth these past two years. She holds me accountable, gives me homework, and pushes me to learn through every experience and challenges me to respond better in the future. If you’re looking to become the best version of yourself, and you’re willing to put the work in, Nancy will see you through. I can’t recommend her enough. She’s truly a blessing.
Nancy has been a wonderful counselor for the past few years. I learn so much, am working hard on my goals and homework, and appreciate her support and guidance so much. She is attentive, thoughtful, and experienced in many realms, which is incredibly helpful. Grateful for her and teen counseling this year!
She is amazing!
Nancy Reali is great! She listens, provides feedback and tools to aid in processing complex information. She is compassionate, has a sense of humor and is professional. I would highly recommend Nancy Reali.
Nancy has helped our marriage tremendously!!! You won’t regret working with her! Put in the work. Do the exercises she suggests. It works. She’s wonderful and patient and down to earth!
Nancy always gives me help and hope. Her advice causes me to see the hopeless circumstances from a different perspective that sheds light on how I can change the way I act and think. I don’t need to be a victim. I value and respect her input highly
Nancy has been very supportive and listens to my issues and is helpful in providing feedback and helpful strategies to use.
Nancy listens to my concerns and validates my feeling. I have become a better mother wife and sibling because of the healing that she has helped me accomplish.
Ms. Nancy is very awesome! Love her
Nanacy has been very helpful and listens to my concerns
Nancy is an excellent therapist! She put me at ease within the first session and I feel confident in sharing with her. She's supportive and funny, but also firm where she needs to be. I'd highly recommend her to anyone!
Nancy is the best! Truly listens to you. You never feel like it’s one sided (couples therapy) and really helps! ❤️ highly recommend her.
Nancy is the best!!!!
Great communication skills and very willing to connect
We've been working with Nancy for a while now and she has really helped us tremendously on a relationship level as well as a personal level. Thank you Nancy
I feel heard. Still learning about each other. But getting there
I like Nancy
❤️
To be honest I was skeptical of therapy when my friend suggested I meet with Nancy. From our first meeting she made me feel comfortable and heard. Her method of using tools, homework, and exercises helps you to feel like you are improving week by week. She is compassionate and understanding. She let me know upfront that working through my trauma was going to be hard and she was right, it was hard. But she was also right there helping guide me to a place of healing. Every week felt like we were moving closer to my goals and looking back, we were. It's been about a year and I can honestly say that Nancys help changed my life. I used to get overwhelmed and lash out or freeze. Now I am able to evaluate what is happening and calmly respond. I am much better at self care and that makes me better at caring for my family. If you are looking for someone who will help you do the work, I can't recommend Nancy enough!
Nancy is wonderful!
We have now been with Nancy over a year. She has helped our marriage out beyond measures. Nancy is amazing. If you are even thinking about it, go for it. Be patient and put in the work. It’s worth it. Thank you Nancy. Can’t wait to see the next level you bring our marriage to!
I give my highest recommendation for Nancy Reali. Thank you for your time and energy!
Very observant, energetic and lively ear to talk to and get feedback
She has the capability to understand and make you feel like you are worth living. She also seems to know what to say and also gives space when needed and is respectful
I love Nancy, she helps me a lot im an introvert and doesnt easily open up to strangers but with her im able to open up easily
Nancy is such a strong, amazing, intelligent, beautiful person who has been an incredible help to me through my therapy. I wouldn’t know what to do without her help.
Very good so far!
Very attentive and helpful
Nancy is an absolute gift to this world! She’s helped me through some really tough times the last 9 or so months. If i could i would just give her the biggest hug and make sure she knows just how appreciative i am of her! She’s the most perfect listener, has the best advice, and knows just how to help me work through whatever I’m going through. Thank you thank you thank you!
Nancy is such a positive support in my life!
Great therapist easy to get along with
She has been very helpful and understanding. I am very grateful for her help.
Sometimes we need to talk to someone to who won’t judge us, who isn’t in our daily life to correct our perception of things. Nancy has been that for my son, non judgmental and caring, she has helped him learn to open up and get things off his chest.
Finding a right therapist has been the longest journey for me. I have never felt like I “clicked” with anyone until I found Nancy Reali. I am so thankful for every session I’ve had with her. She has helped me learn things about myself that has greatly improved my anxiety, PTSD, and childhood trauma. She is so genuine, caring, knowledgeable and an overall amazing therapist!!
Nancy is the first therapist I’ve worked successfully with. Nancy is down to earth, funny, friendly, perceptive and quick to offer different types of resources to approach a problem. I loved the flexability to do both messaging and video chats.
Nancy is very kind, and I found it very easy to talk with her from day one. Her easy going approach to therapy makes it feel like I am talking to an old friend and I really appreciate that.
Nancy is fantastic, the cost of the therapy and typically only being able to schedule 2 a month when the cost is more than 2 in person sessions with my insurance it’s rough.
I absolutely love Nancy! The first therapist I was paired with did not mesh well with me! Since talking with Nancy my life has changedn I know it sounds cheesy but she really has changed the way I think about myself and my life! She has raised my mind and taught me the right techniques and tools to cope and deal with my every day! I can’t say enough good things about Nancy!! I have recommended teencounseling.com to a lot of friends and family and had a bunch of people sign up!!!
Nancy puts me at ease and is very calming. She understands my needs and is always kind and respectful. We also get to enjoy some laughs at times.
Can’t thank you enough!
Nancy is very personable and kind. I was very nervous to start counseling and after my first session with her I felt great and comfortable to open up to her.
One session in and I am very pleased! Nancy created a safe space and was able to facilitate a great dialogue that I think quickly got to some of the issues (even one's I hadn't thought of ahead of the session!). I look forward to our next session!
Nancy is awesome. She listens, understands, and even gives me homework that I don't mind doing. She has really been a big help to me.
So far Nancy had helped me realize so many things about myself. As we continue to work through this tangled mess of emotions I’m confident Nancy will be the best human to help. She’s sweet and caring and really listens to you. I can’t tell you how much that means to me.
Nancy is great even tho we had one session she made me feel comfortable
I immediately felt comfortable with Nancy. She addressed my concerns and am looking forward to our next sessions.
Nancy and I immediately clicked and I felt that she listened and understood my needs quickly. There was also a quick progression of these are the steps we can take to address the roots of the problems. I’ve really enjoyed talking with her, and on top of everything her schedule is super accommodating.
Highly recommended
My first attempt at counseling did not go as I imagined and unfortunately I did not feel very comfortable with or confident that the counselor I had was a good fit for me. However, I did not want to give up so I did what was necessary to get paired with a different counselor; that is when I was paired with Nancy Reali.
I must say that Nancy makes counseling very easy for me! I look forward to having my counseling sessions with her! I’m able to be very open and honest, knowing that no matter the situation or topic being discussed, Nancy will hear me and give me great healthy advice. I also love that Nancy gives me great tools to help me, help myself , on this journey called life!
I can tell that Nancy is a sweet and genuine person that truly wants to help me. I definitely recommend and speak highly of her!
Nancy has been a huge help to me in working through my issues and offering sounds advice.
Nancy is awesome!!!!! Helping people is not just a job for her but a passion. She genuinely cares about each and every person she helps. She respects you for you no matter how different you are from what most would consider normal. I was fearful of being judged because I don't live a normal life, but there was no reason to worry. Nancy accepted my life from day one. I honestly can't say enough good things about her. If you want someone who truly cares and wants what's best for you Nancy Reali is the person to talk too!!!!
Nancy Reali keeps it real and honest to include much laughter which is needed to lighten the moment! Phenomenal approach to some pretty serious topics. Thank you
I appreciate her willingness to jump into my chaos of thoughts and help me find what has been lost within. I have only met with her once so far because of scheduling but I have hope .
I love this woman so much she’s so nice and those messages of her checking up on you really help a lot
Great counselor!! Really takes time for us!!!
Nancy has been really good as my counselor! I'm trying to get approved for more sessions since I should have had a 5th one but the teencounseling.com platform thinks I already had it and is asking for payment. It won't even let me message her so I'm leaving a review to let you know. Sorry! I was ready for the session and logged in and it really wouldn't let me continue or even communicate without putting in payment. I'll be trying to get re-approved and reschedule. Sorry for the missed session!
I enjoyed working with you. You helped me a great deal . I will always remember BOUNDRIES. . You made me remember that word which will help me with my life.
Everything is good right now
Thank-you

Nancy Reali understands trauma and has a genuine interest in supporting me. She knows her stuff and is a sincere listener. So far, she has helped me understand my why. She made me feel confident that counseling is going to help me to feel like a more complete person and unbury issues that I've buried my whole life. My hope is that this will help me live a more joyful life and I believe Nancy would be the best person to help me in this process.
I absolutely LOVE Nancy! She is personable, professional, and has not once "chosen a side". Both my husband and I would agree that she has been a perfect fit to meet our counseling needs! Highly recommend Nancy!
Love Nancy!!!
Nancy is unlike any therapist I’ve ever had. She not only listens, but digs down deep to the main thing that’s been going on in your life. She can find patterns in you that you haven’t understood yourself, and will help guide you in the right direction. She challenges me to get outside my box and ask questions. She is the most incredible therapist and person I’ve ever met. I absolutely love her and recommend her 100 percent!
Excellent warm personality and I feel she has good experience and knowledge of situations.
Nancy is very easy to connect with. Her personality and sense of humor make it comfortable to open up throughout the conversations. The resources she shared have been very helpful and I look forward to continuing to work with her.
