Referral Information for Healthcare Providers
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about my practice.
I’m Michele Nelson, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker with over 35 years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, overthinking, life transitions, and people-pleasing patterns.
I provide therapy exclusively online for adults located in Louisiana and Delaware, making it easy for clients to access consistent, supportive care from the comfort of home. My approach is collaborative, practical, and grounded in evidence-based methods that help clients move forward with clarity and confidence.
Whether you’re referring someone for ongoing therapy or short-term support, I appreciate the opportunity to collaborate in providing thoughtful, client-centered care.

Struggling with chronic worry or overthinking
