Hi, my name is Nicole, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C). Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, especially during times of stress or transition. My goal is to provide a supportive, collaborative space where clients feel respected, heard, and understood. While I have extensive experience supporting teenagers and young adults, all ages are welcome. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the unique challenges athletes face. With adolescents, I focus on healthy emotional development, identity formation, and effective coping skills.

Clients find me when going through periods of reinvention, transition + when they are craving an authentic life. I work with women who feel unsettled and anxious, yet crave peace & are willing to go on a truth seeking mission to find it. Many are highly sensitive humans who are ready to create their own narrative in order to live potently & vibrantly. I believe the therapeutic process is about losing what is no longer needed rather than changing perceived flaws. My style is direct, lively & collaborative; assisting those who want to reclaim themselves & live from their heart.

I see individuals who want to honor and let go of ways of being that were inherent to their survival at a certain time, but now want to move forward with a more peaceful existence. My wide range of clients include people who are first or second generation immigrants looking for support with navigating different cultures, who want to find their peace amidst the climate crisis, or who want to unburden themselves from painful memories. Typically, I work with children and adults who are navigating cultural adjustment (or "culture clash"), experiencing eco-anxiety or grief, or who live with complex or developmental PTSD.

Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Do you put your needs at the bottom of the to-do list? Do you often wonder if life can feel better in some way? That you could be more content? We know life can throw complex challenges our way that can change the way we view the world, our relationships and, at times, ourselves. Not taking time for yourself, and pushing away your own needs, can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body.

Online Therapists

Is online therapy as effective as in-person?

Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?

One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.

Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?

Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.

Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?

The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
