Hello All, My name is Myra and I am a therapist whose work is shaped not only by training, but by deep compassion, resilience, and respect for each person’s story. I believe healing happens when people feel emotionally safe, truly heard, and gently challenged with honesty and care.
I strive to create a space where clients can name what hurts, understand why it hurts, and begin to believe that healing is both possible and deserved. Faith, when welcomed, is expressed through compassion, boundaries, truth, and grace rather than pressure or expectation. I offer sanctuary—a place to heal reflecting the boundless love of Christ.

Do you feel disconnected from your purpose? Do you wonder what is preventing you from embracing your gifts and following your intuition? Maybe you’ve heard conflicting messages from family, community, religion, or society, and you’re wondering who you really are. As Audre Lorde gently reminds us, “our feelings are our most genuine paths to knowledge.”
Your feelings matter, your experiences matter, and your healing matters. You don’t have to navigate this world alone. It would be an honor to walk with you.

Hello and welcome to my virtual therapy space! My name is Nicole, and I would love to chat with you about what has led to you seek out support through therapy. Often when I ask that question, I hear responses such as, "I feel overwhelmed by everything," "I worry about everything and can't seem to turn it off," "I don't want to do anything or be around people anymore" or "this really bad thing happened to me." If you ever have these types of thoughts, then this might be a good space to talk about and work through those thoughts and feelings.

Maybe life feels heavier than it should. Your emotions sit close to the surface, your patience is thin, or you’re overwhelmed by responsibilities you used to manage with ease. Anxiety or depression may cloud your days, or relationships may feel strained in ways you can’t quite untangle. You’re tired of feeling stuck in familiar patterns and want greater insight, stronger coping skills, and a more grounded sense of who you are. You’re ready to understand yourself on a deeper level. Most of all, you want to feel like yourself again: capable, connected, and moving toward a life that feels meaningful.

I've dedicated my expertise to specializing in areas such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and life transitions.
One distinguishing aspect of my approach is my fondness for drawing inspiration from the metaphors! When we confront challenges like anxiety, navigate the tides of change, or grapple with grief, I find solace in reminding my clients that no feeling is permanent; they ebb and flow like the ever-changing waves of the sea. Your story is uniquely yours!

You don't have to keep holding it all together-going through the motions on your own, guessing what normal is, not knowing anything better.
You've worked hard to build a life that looks good on paper-career, independence, maybe even a relationship or side hustle. But, underneath the surface, you're exhausted. The anxiety won't let up. Your inner critic never takes a day off. And, no matter how much you achieve, it never feels like enough.
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from who you really are, you're in the right place. I work with women and LGBTQ+ people who are ready to get to the why behind their patterns.
