Nichole Venable
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Verified
As a systemic and attachment-based therapist, I believe we are all looking for connection, belonging, and acceptance. However old we are – infant,
child
, teen, or adult – we need to make sense of what happens to us, inside of us, and in our relationships. Our life experiences shape us in profound ways; our sense of self, and how we manage emotions, respond to stress and connect with others. When life experiences are adverse, our body and brain can make meaning in ways that can cause distress. I help clients connect with their innate ability to change and heal difficult experiences so they can find peace and self-worth at any age.
