About Fantanesh
Fantanesh Dixon is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, and depression. She offers straightforward, practical support and focuses on skills that can be used between sessions. Her approach aims to help people notice patterns and make small, steady changes.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness therapy is offered to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity.
Background and approach
She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at longer-standing patterns that affect mood and relationships. Clients can expect short-term skill building and time to talk through deeper issues when needed. Sessions often include exercises to practice outside of appointments.
The goal is to give tools that make daily life easier and more manageable. Fantanesh trained at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and practices in Nevada. She holds the LCSW credential, which is listed as NV LCSW 8644-C.
Her background combines practical therapies with an interest in how past experiences shape current feelings. People typically work on lowering anxiety, easing depressive symptoms, and handling stress more effectively. Sessions are intended to be collaborative, with the therapist and client deciding together what to try next.
How her approaches translate to online care
Fantanesh uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try concrete behavior changes. CBT sessions often include practice tasks to do between meetings so progress continues outside sessions.She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that can reduce reactivity and calm the body. Mindfulness exercises are brief and easy to practice during the day.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try strategies together. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or a quick check-in during a busy day. Live chat and text messaging work well for frequent brief check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make scheduling more flexible and help fit therapy into everyday life.
