About Nicole
Nicole uses a client-centered stance to keep the work focused on each person's goals. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when strong emotions or intense relationship patterns get in the way of daily life.
Her practice supports people dealing with life transitions, chronic health or caregiving stress, sleep problems, and issues around self-esteem or body image. She also helps with intimacy-related concerns, communication problems, commitment worries, and the fallout of past trauma and abuse. Nicole offers coaching-style work for career questions alongside traditional therapy topics.
People who value clear, collaborative work will find her approach practical. She helps clients build resilience through skill practice, improved communication, and steady emotional regulation. Nicole welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and identities and works with LGBT concerns without judgment.
Sessions focus on what the client needs now and what can realistically change between visits. New clients begin by identifying priority goals, then Nicole and the client adjust tools and pacing to match real life demands.

How Nicole's approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's priorities, helping the therapist and client shape the work together. Online sessions can still center the client's goals and pace while using conversation and reflective questions to deepen understanding.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses small experiments and skill practice to change patterns. Online work often includes short between-session exercises and clear behavioral steps to try in daily life.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and effective interpersonal skills. Those skills translate well to remote sessions through guided practice, coaching around communication, and homework that builds stability.
Choosing the right approach is part of the first few meetings. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. This collaborative process helps determine whether CBT, DBT, a client-centered path, or a mix will best support the person's needs.
The original biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let clients use tools like written exercises between meetings to reinforce progress.
