As a licensed mental health counselor with over 30 years of experience, I primarily work with individuals experiencing anxiety and trauma. I use cognitive and mind-body techniques to help people settle their bodies and avoid getting caught in unhelpful thought patterns. I am passionate about helping people to identify and move toward their values...the things that matter to them the most in life, in order to have a more fulfilling life.

My career in mental health began in 2006 while working in Florida's child welfare system after receiving my BS in Gerontology from Bethune-Cookman University. I knew I wanted to further my knowledge to make a more substantial and significant impact when working with children and their families. This led me to earn my Master's in Counseling in 2009 from Webster University and became a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. My clinical work experience includes working with children and their supportive caregivers who have been exposed to abuse and neglectful circumstance, adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse, and providing therapeutic interventions to inpatient adult clients who either were voluntarily or in-voluntarily placed at a crisis stabilization hospital. I hope you allow me to help you on your healing journey.

My name is Nadine Thompson, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of Rhode Island and Massachusetts. I earned my Master of Social Work degree, specializing in Clinical Practice, from Smith College School of Social Work in 1991. I also have post-graduate certification in Addiction counseling, multicultural practice, DBT, and Couples and Family Therapy. I've worked in many different settings with individuals and families who have a variety of personal issues such as depression/anxiety, stress, family problems, trauma/abuse, addiction, relationships/parenting, and more. Over the past 30 years as a clinician, my experience has taught me that the most important aspect of counseling by far is the rapport, connection, and comfort you feel with your therapist. Recently, I have come to really see the value in being able "to hold space" for clients to express their deepest feelings and possibly find the answers and direction that they need as they become more self-aware. We all want to be able to share our personal truths and be accepted and understood. I believe in the power of “telling our stories”, as a pathway to healing and resilience. Our work together may include you being able to see yourself and those around you more clearly and develop tools and strategies for creating change in your life.

I provide a supportive, practical space focused on helping you feel more balanced, grounded, and capable in daily life. My approach blends talk therapy with mindfulness, meditation, and yoga, along with evidence-based skills from CBT, DBT, ACT, and CPT. I work with individuals navigating stress, emotional regulation, life transitions, and those exploring or living with neurodivergence. I also support clients recovering from narcissistic or emotionally unhealthy relationship patterns, with a focus on rebuilding self-trust, boundaries, and stability. Sessions are collaborative, structured when helpful, and tailored to how you function best. We focus on building practical tools, increasing self-awareness, and creating sustainable change that fits your everyday life. I offer telehealth sessions and strive to create a calm, approachable environment where growth feels manageable and accessible.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by New Hampshire rather than a city like Manchester?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in New Hampshire. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across New Hampshire from Nashua to Concord! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in New Hampshire.

Will my therapist take UnitedHealthcare/Optum - Medicare?

Yes! If you use UnitedHealthcare/Optum - Medicare you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have UnitedHealthcare/Optum - Medicare you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
