About Nannina

Nannina Leo is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Nevada with six years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are carrying stress, anxiety, depression, or the fallout of life changes. She aims to make opening up easier and less intimidating for someone who is unsure where to begin.

She uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels most urgent. Nannina helps people talk through relationship strains, family conflicts, career stress, and struggles with intimacy or self-esteem. She also supports those facing grief, trauma, addiction concerns, bipolar challenges, eating issues, anger, and attention-related difficulties like ADHD.

Her approach combines practical skills and motivational strategies. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools to build emotional regulation and Motivational Interviewing to support commitment to change.

Sessions are meant to be collaborative and goal-oriented. Clients and she work together to set realistic steps and practice new skills between meetings. The process is paced to fit each person’s readiness and daily life.

Finding help can feel hard, and Nannina aims to meet people with respect and steady support. Prospective clients in Nevada who prefer English can follow the site's booking flow to learn more about the next steps.

How CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing fit into online care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and then try different actions to change those patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking big problems into manageable steps.

DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, focuses on skills for handling intense emotions and improving relationships. It teaches concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and effective communication that can be practiced between sessions.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational approach that helps people find their own reasons to change. It supports people who feel unsure about taking steps forward by building motivation and realistic plans.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your needs, goals, and preferences and will help decide which methods to try first. That process is collaborative and revisited as goals shift.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how meetings are scheduled. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or school by reducing travel time and allowing more flexible scheduling. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a brief update is helpful or sessions that focus on skill practice without needing extra travel time.
