Getting to know Nancy Tomas

Hi there, I'm Nancy! Welcome! Bienvenido/a! I am Nancy Tomas, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from California State University Long Beach. I am fluent in Spanish and have 20 years of experience working in the medical field with clients impacted by a new or worsening medical illness, such as diabetes, cancer, kidney disease, or high blood pressure. I want to be your partner in navigating the challenges you face. I focus on what matters most to you-your strengths, problem-solving, and identifying community resources. I also have experience helping cancer survivors process feelings as they transition back to work, feeling grateful for regaining their health but wondering how others may react to possible image changes related to treatment or fear of cancer recurrence. My approach I focus on client strengths, problem-solving, identifying community resources, grief counseling, life care planning, and advanced illness coordinated care. My focus Adults, ages 18 to 100, impacted by a new diagnosis or worsening medical condition, like kidney disease, cancer, or diabetes. My communication style Let's start with what matters most to you. Let's acknowledge that all is important as we prioritize and break things down into manageable pieces. My journey to mental healthcare When I entered the medical field as a medical social worker, I noticed how a new, worsening, or recurring illness goes beyond impacting the physical being of a person. It can affect the emotional state, further stress household finances, and even compromise fertility. My goals for you Let's start with what is impacting you the most and how. Let's break it down into manageable steps. Let's do less of what's not helping. Let's do more of what will help you attain a healthier mental state. My first session with you Let's talk. Let's identify what you are struggling with the most. Let's work together to identify goals.
