The goal of therapy is to help people rediscover their strengths and talents, often blocked or underdeveloped, so they can be happier and more fulfilled. Since 1987, my counseling practice has specialized in enhancing creativity and helping people overcome addictions. I work with professional artists seeking support on their path and with all people who have a desire to explore personal creativity in their lives. Through compassionate listening and a focus on connecting mind and body, I encourage people to develop a greater awareness of the present moment, their body's signals, thoughts, feelings and the needs that arise.

Hi there. Thanks for stopping to read my blurb. My name is Nikki and I have worked in the Community Mental Health field for over 20 years. I have had the pleasure of working with many types of people in various stages of need- from case management to Crisis Intervention and support. I feel honored that people have let me into their lives and be witness to such vulnerable parts. I'm invested in working with people and meeting them where they are at. I believe that people can do incredible things and that at times we all need some support, guidance and someone to talk and process with- I'd love the chance to be that person.

You’re the one everyone leans on—and you’re so tired. You focus on managing others emotions, feel guilty for needing rest, and have spent years staying small to keep the peace. If you're exhausted from people-pleasing, from trying to be the “reliable employee,” the “easygoing partner,” the “strong friend”—you're in the right place. You’re insightful, you care deeply, and you’ve already done so much self-reflection. Now you’re ready for something deeper—true fulfillment, more ease, and relationships where you feel fully known & cared for, and truly yourself.

Over the years, I have recognized that each of us has a wisdom that resides within.This wisdom within our mind/body system holds the solution. We are designed for balance- yes, we do get off-balance. I will help you understand what your body/mind is attempting to communicate. It is often a simple process. We all have beliefs that originate from our culture, our society, and our family. Some beliefs are helpful, some are not. It is our beliefs that guide our behavior. Beliefs are the 'fuel' that move us. We will discover the 'outdated' beliefs.

The world moves at a pace that can feel impossible to keep up with. It’s like you’re always trying to catch up, just barely staying afloat. Balancing work/school, a social life, and all the basic day-to-day tasks can feel overwhelming—almost like everyone else got the instructions on how to manage it all, and you didn’t.
And even though you’re bright and capable, things still slip through the cracks. That can be frustrating, stressful, and honestly pretty lonely. Trying to explain why things feel so hard when it looks like everyone else has it together can leave you feeling misunderstood and worn down.

I offer compassionate, attentive, thoughtful counseling in the context of the relationship I build with my clients. I see our work as a collaborative endeavor that centers clients as the experts on their own lives and looks at problems as separate from people. I am interested in the stories of people's lives, creative responses to problems we encounter, and how our relationships with ourselves and others shape our sense of self and belonging. I believe in the healing power of the creative process, and can include the arts and movement into my work if that is something my client would like to explore.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
