Experienced Licensed Counselor & Cultural Anthropologist
With more than 25 years of experience, Nancy St. Claire offers a thoughtful, compassionate approach to therapy grounded in both clinical expertise and cultural understanding. She works with adults navigating stress, difficult life experiences, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, and periods of transition or feeling stuck.
Nancy’s background includes extensive work in nonprofit and community mental health settings serving underserved populations. Her experience spans crisis services, program leadership, and trauma-informed care. She also served in national leadership roles within behavioral health organizations and provided oversight for substance use treatment programs across northeast Florida.
In addition to her counseling background, Nancy holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees in anthropology with a focus on cultural and ethnographic studies. As a civilian cultural advisor embedded with a U.S. Army Brigade Combat Team in Iraq (2008–2009), she conducted sociocultural fieldwork and accompanied soldiers on missions throughout the region. These experiences continue to shape her grounded, resilient, and deeply human approach to counseling.
