Connect with Nicole Schafer
Nicole’s clinical interests include relationships, intimacy, sexuality, attachment styles, and holistic & alternative health. She helps clients work on boundary issues, consent, codependency, feeling comfortable in their skin, and exploring desires. She also works with relationship partners (couples, thruples, polycules, etc.) on communicating needs, building emotional intimacy, exploring sexuality, and generally improving relationship health. Nicole can help guide you and provide tools to navigate challenging situations.
Her approach with clients emphasizes positive psychology and a bit of existentialism, but is ultimately person-centered, because there is no one-size fits all cookie cutter approach! Nicole aims to provide a safe environment for open communication throughout therapy. She is an open book, incredibly non-judgmental, and always has a great sense of humor to add
