I’m Nicole Barksdale, and I specialize in helping people heal from burnout and trauma using a holistic, deeply supportive approach. With tools like EMDR, nervous system regulation, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy, I help you move beyond just coping and into true, lasting transformation. I know how heavy things can feel when you're running on empty or carrying pain that hasn’t been fully processed—and I want you to know you don’t have to do it alone. Together, we’ll create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported. If you're ready to feel more like yourself again, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on that journey.
I’m skilled at helping high-achieving, burnt-out individuals slow down, reconnect with themselves, and finally release what they’ve been carrying for far too long. My clients often say they feel deeply understood, supported, and empowered in our work together—and I take that to heart.
You’re self-aware, growth-oriented, and ready for more than surface-level coping—you want real healing, nervous system relief, and a deeper connection to yourself. If you’re craving a space where you don’t have to explain everything and can finally just be, you’re in the right place.

I work best with clients who are high-functioning but exhausted—people who are "holding it all together" on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or stuck on the inside. You may be the go-to person for everyone else, but deep down, you're burnt out, carrying unresolved trauma, or feeling like you've lost touch with who you really are.
