About Ingrid

Dr. Ingrid Nembhard is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with two decades of practice. She holds LCSW licensure in Florida and additional LCSW and LCSW-C credentials, and she works with adults on relationship and family concerns, blended family issues, grief, and life changes.

She focuses on practical, goal-oriented work. Sessions are solution-focused and aim to help people notice small changes that add up. She also draws on client-centered methods and motivational interviewing to support decision making and strengthen coping skills.

Clients often come for help with relationship tension, communication problems, divorce and separation, and the stresses of merging households. She also supports people managing caregiver strain, compassion fatigue, and issues tied to adoption or foster care. Career, money worries, and questions about life purpose are part of her caseload as well.

In session she talks through concrete steps and strategies. That might mean identifying unhelpful thinking patterns with cognitive behavioral techniques, setting short-term goals, or practicing new ways to bring up difficult topics. Conversations are practical and focused on what someone can try between sessions.

Her background includes long-term clinical work and a PsyD in Grief Counseling. With twenty years of experience, she offers steady, experienced guidance for adults navigating divorce, blended household transitions, loss, or other major life changes.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client’s priorities and strengths. The therapist listens and reflects back what matters most, which helps people clarify their own goals and decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together; it is used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try specific strategies to change them.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to identify goals and try methods that match those goals and preferences. That process can include short-term solution-focused goals, CBT exercises between sessions, or motivational interviewing to support readiness for change.

Confirm the session formats before booking so you know what is offered for online work. The main practical benefit is fitting therapy into a busy life - sessions can be scheduled around work, caregiving, or medical appointments. Online meetings also make it easier to maintain continuity when life changes or travel make in-person visits harder. Licensed professionals conduct the sessions and will help adapt techniques so they work well in an online setting.
