Nellie McCarty

I'm a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Washington and Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California, providing virtual therapy for adults throughout both states. With over ten years of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, life transitions, and perinatal mental health concerns, including pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, infertility, and pregnancy loss. I hold a Master of Social Work degree and have completed advanced training through Postpartum Support International, earning my PMH-C certification in perinatal mental health.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and relationship-focused, creating a space where clients feel supported as they navigate challenges and work toward meaningful change. As a mother of three, I bring both professional expertise and a deep appreciation for the complexities of balancing personal well-being, relationships, and family life.

In our first session, we'll spend time getting to know each other and discussing what brings you to therapy. Together, we'll explore your current concerns, identify your goals, and begin developing a treatment plan tailored to your needs. My approach is collaborative and client-centered, meaning we'll work as a team to determine what support and strategies will be most helpful for you. You'll also have an opportunity to ask questions and make sure therapy feels like a good fit.
