I believe meaningful change happens within safe, supportive relationships. Being truly heard and understood can profoundly impact a person’s sense of identity, resilience, and hope. Counseling is more than a career path for me—it is a commitment to walking alongside individuals during vulnerable and transformative moments in their lives.
I am especially drawn to working with children, adolescents, and families. I understand that behavior is often a form of communication, particularly for young people who may lack the language to express complex emotions.

My ideal client is someone who is trying to just navigate life or help their child navigate life. Maybe my client has had a bad experience with other clinicians or has been afraid to try therapy at all. Maybe they’ve had several diagnoses and just want confirmation on what is going on with their mental health. I have been there too! I hope my client’s goals are to get an accurate diagnosis and truly engage in their own healing. I hope my client wants to feel better, have less symptoms and more manageable coping skills.

You just want the pain, chaos, and emptiness you feel to go away once and for all. Whether it is eating secretly to comfort yourself, having to drink every night to sleep, pushing yourself to achieve, or isolating yourself. Attempting to balance family, work, and your self-care can feel overwhelming and tends to end with you feeling worse about yourself and how you can't get it together. Shame and guilt keep you stationary where you are, and if you had to admit that things were not where you wanted you might actually crumble. Let's figure out a new normal, together.

Hi, I'm Nicole! It can feel so hard to simply feel okay, I get it. I'd like to take a moment to recognize survival mode-it's a sign your body and your brain are working to protect you. It's how you have survived. You're not crazy, lazy, or too much. The good news is that you don't have to stay stuck in survival mode. I work with people who are done pretending they’re fine. The ones who want to feel like themselves again—or maybe meet themselves for the first time. I’m not here to “fix” you. I’m here to help you untangle the mess, feel your feelings without drowning in them, and reconnect with the parts of you that deserve a voice.

I enjoy working with adolescents and adults. Who we are is a direct result of what we experience and surround ourselves with. As a result, a narrative is created. Sometimes, the narrative we have for ourselves can be harmful. When a client is experiencing a discrepancy in their life, I work hard to understand how they experience the world so that I can better serve their needs. Gaining control of your mental health is empowering, and because of this, I work to create an environment to foster growth and understanding within the client's therapeutic journey.

Why do bad things happen and what do we do with them? Have you been afflicted by loss and grief or need help to find purpose? Sometimes life is hard, sometimes life is unfair, and sometimes the suffering is so palpable that it is hard to see beyond the pain. When the mire of life traps us, often the most helpful thing is a hand to grasp that can help us find our way out. What I often see in practice are people grappling with heartache in some form or another; whether it be the recent death of a loved one, the loss of identity, or simply an inability to sleep. People need companionship to help face difficult feelings.

Many of us struggle with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, etc., that effect our daily lives, all of which can have a profound impact on our ability to manage mental health and maintain healthy relationships with others. This is especially typical in adolescent years when they strive for independence and formulation of personal identity, which often creates conflict within family systems, issues with self-esteem, and interactions with peers. While I see clients of all ages, I enjoy working with teens struggling to find themselves while navigating the numerous changes experienced during adolescence.
