About Nancy
Nancy Jones Batch is a licensed mental health counselor in Washington with 20 years of experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety and supports those struggling with depression and low self-esteem.
Background and approach
She also addresses relationship concerns and the effects of trauma and abuse. Nancy aims to make sessions easy to follow.
She encourages honest talk and listens without judgment. Conversations focus on what feels most urgent and practical steps that can help between sessions.
Her work often centers on strengthening communication and building emotional awareness. She uses approaches that help people understand patterns, notice how feelings and thoughts affect behavior, and practice new responses.
That can include helping someone with social anxiety, processing guilt and shame, or navigating separation and divorce issues. Nancy draws on methods such as attachment-based work, client-centered talk therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and the Gottman Method.
She tailors these tools to each person's goals and pace. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Appointments can focus on skill-building, processing past events, or improving day-to-day coping. The emphasis is on collaboration - Nancy and the client set goals together and track what helps.
She aims to empower people to make changes that fit their lives.
Online approaches for connection and change
Gottman-informed work focuses on improving communication and building practical skills for relationships. It helps people notice interaction patterns and practice healthier ways of talking and listening. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early bonds influence current reactions and closeness; it helps people understand emotional needs and respond differently in relationships. Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience and pace, using empathetic listening and reflection to help someone find their own solutions and feel heard.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Nancy collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. She checks in as you go and adjusts the focus when something isn’t working or when new priorities appear.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when discussing emotions or practicing new communication skills. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging can be useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or reviewing homework between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care around work, school, or family commitments.
