Hi, I'm Nick. If you're interested in Internal Family Systems, Mindful Somatic Psychology, Polyvagal Theory, EFIT, Nonviolent Communication, or Interpersonal Neurobiology, I can help. You might need to unburden traumas, update limiting core beliefs, connect with your essential Self, resolve chaos & rigidity, or get support through a challenging time. It's important to me that sessions are affordable, can cater to clients who are new to therapy or more experienced, develop growth and self-actualization, and can achieve steady results over the medium to long term. If having an LGBTQIA+ therapist is important to you, you're in luck!
I am set up to be flexible with my approach to suit your needs. We can incorporate psychotherapy, worksheets, questionnaires, structure, mindfulness, psychoeducation, a blend of modalities, or just roll with how you're doing on the day. I find a good approach can be to use IFS as a base, then blend in my other modalities as needed to make it more dynamic!
If having 'power with' & compassion-based approaches to therapy rather than diagnosis & pathologization sounds like something you're drawn to, and prefer evidence and depth-based modalities that are less conventional, feel free to reach out to book a free 15-minute 'see if we're a good fit' chat. Thanks!

My $95 per hour rate can be adjusted based on financial hardship. When needed, we can also do 1.5-hour or 2-hour sessions at a reduced rate of $130/$160. Longer sessions are useful in the processing stage of therapy for deeper shifts, while standard sessions are good for keeping things simple.

I work with people who want to resolve depression, anxiety, trauma, attachment & relationship issues, gender & sexuality distress, and improvements in your mental well-being. In our initial sessions, we can tailor an approach that works for you, plan together, and get to know your strengths, challenges, and history. I find that weekly, medium to long-term sessions yield the best results.

I am trained to use a holistic approach, looking at all aspects of improving your well-being, using the methods mentioned above, but peppered with lots of interesting techniques I've collected along the way. With a musical background, I like being creative with techniques and being present to the moment while being structured, rather than being too rigid or 'stuffy'. Therapy should be interesting!
