I am originally from Peru but I have lived in MN since 2004. Spanish is my native language. I also speak English fluently. I identify as a cis, straight, immigrant, Latina or Latinx woman & social worker. My work focuses on offering empathy, support, promoting insight, and working collaboratively to achieve goals. I strive to understand people's experiences within their own unique context and take into account larger community and social issues, and how they impact our experience.

Hey, I'm Nicole. I specialize in helping modern women in their 20s and 30s overcome anxiety, foster meaningful relationships, and become their truest, healthiest selves. If you're struggling with people pleasing, insecure attachment, boundaries, high-functioning anxiety, codependency, perfectionism, or general relationship issues, I'm here to help. I'm passionate about working with individuals who are ready to jump in and do the work, and I'm committed to helping you achieve your goals. I am also a board approved supervisor for therapists working towards LPCC licensure in the state of MN.

You may have stood in a crowded room and feel completely unseen, unheard, and disconnected to yourself and others. On the outside it may seem like you have it all together but on the inside it feels like a tornado.

We strive to embrace your values and beliefs without the weight of guilt or shame. Here you can feel connected in a community that matters most to you while calming the storm inside.

I am honored to work with individuals, couples and families who experience conflict and disconnection. With couples and families this may look like: infidelity, lack of intimacy, sexual concerns, parenting challenges, broken trust, lack of communication, difficult transitions and not feeling validated. You will have a safe place to share your reality, while being held accountable. Let's get you seen and heard by one another!

I am passionate about navigating and exploring identity, values, and relationship dynamics in a space where clients can be their unfiltered, unique selves outside of societal norms or expectations. My therapy practice incorporates humor and adapts to the needs of my clients, ranging from "saying it like it is" to supporting and nurturing the vulnerable part that show up.

Therapy can provide an invaluable environment to help you regain a sense of balance & overall wellness. Being seen and understood can be a transformative experience. I believe that by providing an authentic & safe environment, people can leverage their strengths and feel empowered toward healing, wellness, & radical self-acceptance. It is a courageous act to seek therapy & I look forward to working collaboratively with you as you navigate your journey towards insight, discovery, balance, & wellness.

Would you love to deepen the level of emotional intimacy and connection in your relationship? Are you struggling to feel heard and understood by your partner? If so, we could be a great fit! I love helping people better understand and respond to the needs of all people in the relationship. It’s important to me that couples walk away from our work together with skills they can actually use to build the relationship and life they want. I have advanced training in Compassionate Communication (also known as NVC or Nonviolent Communication). I welcome people of all gender identities, sexualities, and relationship structures.

I am part therapist, holding space for life's ambiguities, and part coach, cheering you on. My passion lies in supporting and empowering people to bravely move through the complex transitions that come up in their lives - divorce, infidelity, codependency, and pandemic stress; Today, life has so many unknowns and frightening stressors. We're trying to figure out how to hold onto ourselves, what we know, and the things that we hold dear. Let me help you build up your reserve of relational resources and skills.

I see you. Quietly pretending everything is fine, scrolling on your phone or bingeing on Netflix. I hear you. All the mistaken beliefs like “I am not good enough, or I am unloveable.” I feel you. All the disappointments carefully tucked away in your heart or unsaid words clogged in your throat. Let’s lighten your heart, mind & body so you can live a life from your highest truth. I am gobsmacked by the power of grief, love, trauma, attachment & joy. I help by integrating life’s most painful experiences. Integration leads to transformation which opens you up to endless possibilities.

Are you feeling disconnected from your partner? Facing sexual challenges that seem insurmountable? I work with individuals and couples facing sexual and relationship issues. Therapy provides people an opportunity to learn about their feelings, thoughts, behaviors, and to develop healthier skills for coping with difficulties and painful experiences. I work mostly with emotional and physical disconnection, parenting style conflicts, life transitions, loss of sex drive, and differing libidos. I am a Certified Sex Therapist by AASECT.

As a relational therapist who works with individuals and couples, I specialize in fostering healthy connections. Whether you're a couple facing conflict and communication issues or an individual overwhelmed by people-pleasing and lack of confidence, I can guide you toward deeper connectedness, more effective communication, and contentment. Struggling to express your authentic voice? People-pleasing can suppress your true desires, causing inner conflict and resentment. Constantly overwhelmed? That impacts your quality of life and ability to cope daily. Together, we can work to help you feel more resourced and fulfilled.

Stressors in our lives often become overwhelming and confusing. They challenge our ability to cope. In collaboration with you, I provide practical guidance, support, and compassion to understand what might be helpful. I will gently and consistently challenge you to effectively change and move towards a meaningful and purposeful life.

Figuring out life is not easy, especially if you're trying to do it alone. Feeling heard, understood, and cared for with someone who is authentic & compassionate can be so helpful for your health, happiness, & wellbeing. When I meet with a new client, whether as an individual, or as a couple or family, I support each person so they do not feel alone while sorting out the hard stuff that can get in the way from finding peace.

Sometimes you may find yourself experiencing conflicting emotions or in complex relationships. Therapy helps you find clarity and return to emotional wellness. I include family members in session when helpful and I explore with you ways to achieve enriching emotional and interpersonal experiences. I'm originally from Mexico and moved to MN in 1997, which allows me to provide therapy fluently in Spanish and/or English along with a personal understanding of Latino culture, American culture and multicultural relationships.

It seems inevitable that at some point in everyone's life, the thread that connects us to our deepest center becomes frayed or lost. We may experience this as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, physical illness, feeling "stuck", and more. These symptoms are messengers of the soul and can lead us to that deep place where healing and transformation can occur. Our psyche also speaks to us through joy, a sense of "calling," intuitions, synchronicities, talents, etc... but often we listen best to pain. Together, we can rediscover your authentic Self and access your own wellspring of healing.
