About E.

E. Troy Nielsen is a licensed mental health counselor who works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, and depression.

Background and approach

With 20 years of professional experience, he focuses on practical, skills-based strategies tailored to each person's situation and goals. He emphasizes respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care while collaborating with clients to build workable plans for change.

Nielsen draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a foundation for helping clients identify unhelpful patterns, test new ways of thinking, and develop coping tools for everyday challenges. He also brings experience addressing a range of related issues including adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, blended family dynamics, communication and commitment problems, and substance-related concerns.

Licensed in Florida as LMHC and in Utah as LCMHC, he frames progress as a step-by-step process and supports clients through the practical work of change.

CBT-informed Care Offered Remotely



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill-building. It is often helpful for problems like anxiety, depression, stress, and difficulties with motivation or self-esteem by teaching tools to manage symptoms and respond differently to challenging situations.

Therapy with this clinician is collaborative; finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will work together with clients to weigh therapeutic options, tailor interventions to individual needs and preferences, and adjust strategies as goals and circumstances evolve.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to fit regular sessions into busy lives and to access consistent support from a licensed professional without travel, while still focusing on practical skills and progress.
