About Nelly

Dr. Nelly Gregorian-DeLeon is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 15 years of experience. She practices in North Carolina and brings a warm, empathic presence to sessions. She speaks English, Armenian, and Persian and has lived and worked in multiple countries.

Patients come to her for many reasons, including depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and relationship strain. She aims to listen first and understand each person's story before suggesting a way forward. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps people can use between meetings.

Her approach blends several styles to match the issue at hand. She uses client-centered work to build trust and help people feel heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is applied when patterns of thought and behavior need to change. Existential ideas help people explore meaning and life transitions when those questions are present.

Dr. Gregorian-DeLeon also integrates hypnotherapy and Jungian perspectives when appropriate for deeper emotional work and exploration of recurring themes. She emphasizes culturally sensitive practice and pays attention to clients' backgrounds and values. This flexibility helps when concerns span grief, parenting stress, career shifts, or family-of-origin issues.

Her practice supports people dealing with anger, self-esteem struggles, coping with life changes, caregiver stress, and commitment or communication problems. The goal is to help people find manageable steps toward better daily functioning and clearer relationships.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and creating a supportive space where the client’s experience guides the work; this helps when people need to feel understood before making changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety. Existential Therapy invites conversations about meaning, choice, and life transitions for those wrestling with bigger life questions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work together with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and values. That collaborative decision is revisited as things change or new concerns emerge.

Confirm which session options are currently offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people join sessions from different locations. It also lets the therapist use worksheets, thought records, and guided exercises between meetings so progress can continue on everyday schedules.
