About Nancy

Dr. Nancy Michuda helps people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and life changes. She also supports concerns around parenting, family problems, ADHD, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping issues, and self-esteem.

She brings 28 years of experience as a licensed psychologist in Florida and Illinois. She trained at the University of Miami, earning a Master of Science and a Doctor of Philosophy in Developmental/Pediatric Psychology. Her work draws on several evidence-based approaches rather than a single method.

Background and approach

She uses practical tools to address behaviors, thoughts, and emotions. Attachment-based ideas are part of how she understands relationships and patterns that affect daily life. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thinking and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice values and take purposeful steps.

Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help with stress and emotional regulation. Sessions are collaborative. She checks in often to make sure therapy stays focused on what matters most to the client.

The goal is to help people feel more capable, less overwhelmed, and clearer about next steps. Her background includes work with adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, autism and Asperger syndrome, intellectual disability, hearing impairment, and fatherhood issues. She practices in Florida and communicates in English.

Online support

How attachment, ACT, and CBT work online

Attachment-based ideas focus on how past and current relationship patterns shape feelings and behavior, and help identify ways to build safer, more predictable connections. This approach can be useful for people dealing with family problems, adoption or foster care concerns, and attachment issues.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, centers on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and choosing actions that match personal values. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change worry, low mood, or unhelpful habits.

Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, then adjust methods as therapy progresses. Many people benefit from mixing elements of these approaches rather than using only one.

Online therapy offers flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client work face-to-face even when travel is difficult. Phone sessions can fit into a lunch break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins and brief coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around school, work, and family life.
