Nancy Hummel

I'm an art therapist and LMHC, practicing in and around Boston for 14+ years. I have enjoyed working in many areas of mental health, especially in private practice where I have been able to explore wellness with a variety of adolescents to adults. I try to use creativity in my sessions, using mindful, nonjudgmental, and approachable conversation. Trained in DBT, I offer an eclectic balance of addressing behavior, emotions, and thoughts.

I approach each client where they are and find out what their goals are first. As we speak, I try to allow the client to let go of "good" and "bad" or "right" and "wrong" choices. I encourage being creative and using art (not limited to traditional art) to examine what their needs are.

I hope clients take away a warmth and acceptance, an understanding that they have the answers. I hope my clients feel empowered to make choices that help them feel successful.
