About Nannina
Nannina Leo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Nevada with six years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, career challenges, depression, addictions, LGBT issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related matters, eating concerns, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and ADHD.
She uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels most urgent. Sessions aim to clarify problems and find practical steps to reduce daily strain. That may include trying new ways to handle stress, practicing concrete skills for managing intense feelings, or talking through difficult relationship patterns.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Those methods help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, build coping skills, and strengthen motivation for change. She outlines options and works with the person to choose what fits their situation.
In sessions she concentrates on clear goals and small, achievable steps. She pays attention to work, family, health, and financial pressures that shape choices and stress. Practical problem-solving is balanced with time to process emotions and past events.
People who come for help can expect direct discussion about current problems and a plan for moving forward. The first appointment is used to understand the situation and agree on short-term goals. From there she and the person check progress and adjust the plan as needed.
BHow sessions work
How her CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing translate to online work
CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. In practice this means identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavior changes to see what helps reduce anxiety or depression.DBT emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal communication. It is useful when strong reactions, relationship conflict, or difficulty regulating impulses are the main concern.
Motivational Interviewing is a conversational approach that helps clarify a person’s reasons for change and strengthens their commitment to specific goals. It is often used when someone feels stuck or unsure about the next step.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is collaborative. She will discuss what feels most relevant, try techniques together, and adjust based on how things go. The plan evolves from session to session to match goals and day-to-day challenges.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can help fit therapy into work and family routines, make check-ins shorter when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people practice skills in the places where daily life happens, then bring observations back to the session for review.
