Does it feel like you keep moving but nothing seems to change? Maybe you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about your next step. In the middle of life’s noise—work, relationships, family—it’s easy to lose touch with your own needs and direction.
I help clients slow down, reflect, and reconnect with what’s working—and what needs to change. Whether you’re navigating big decisions, painful experiences, or relationship challenges, therapy can be a space for clarity and growth.
I tailor therapy to your needs, using tools like EMDR to process trauma and the Gottman Method to support stronger, healthier relationships. If you’re ready for a change, visit nicolemrichardson(dot)com to learn more. For support with talking to your kids about sex, relationships, and tech, check out my e-course at TheTalkMadeSimple(dot)com.

The first session is your time to explore what you need and how you would like my support and we can make a plan together if you're not sure. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is an umbrella term that can mean a lot of different techniques that include skill building, mindfulness, challenging your self talk and communication. You can change your goals and focus as your needs change.
