More about Nicole
- 19 years' experience

- LMSW
I am a Social Worker licensed in Michigan with over 17 years of experience working in the hospital setting as well as in homecare, hospice, palliative care, brain injury and schools. I have enjoyed working with clients individually as well as in groups in addition to providing continuing education to professionals and other workshops and supportive resources to community members. I have worked with clients of all ages with a variety of concerns including challenges associated with ADHD, Autism, Learning and other Disabilities as well as clients struggling with Anxiety, Depression and other mental health diagnoses. Additionally, I have worked with many people who have experienced physical and/or emotional trauma or abuse and those that have struggled with substance abuse.
My therapeutic style is warm and interactive. My approach combines a variety of methods including the use of mindfulness strategies, cognitive behavioral and mind-body techniques as a few examples, based on your personality, needs and goals. Our conversations and your treatment plan will be tailored to meet your unique needs. We will work toward identifying and utilizing your personal strengths to their maximum potential and improving any areas that may benefit from additional practice and support. I work with my clients to help identify the ways in which these challenges can impact communication, family and relationships, and when appropriate, focus on strategies and tools that positively impact communication and help improve relationships as well.
It can be very difficult to take the first steps to make adjustments in our lives that move us toward the positive changes we would like to see. I am looking forward to working with you on this journey!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I trust Nicole's guidance and council. I look forward to talking with her on a weekly basis.
Sincere
Nicole is caring and compassionate. She really listens and offers practical advice and encouragement while helping me work on my goals. I feel she has truly helped me and continues to do so week after week. I highly recommend her.
Nicole gives me positive feedback as I have never received much praise in my life. She understands what is important to me and my mental well being.
Nicole is very helpful, she listens and understands and offers help in all ways she can.
She's understanding calm and helpful
I feel very encouraged to talk openly and am listened to-- which is wonderful. Not only that, Nicole gives me great exercises and helps me reframe my unhealthy ways of thinking in a safe, non-judgmental manner. Navigating trauma is hard, but with each step, Nicole makes it feel more manageable!
The short time I have been with betterhelp has already given me hope. I have Nicole for my therapist, between messaging and the one chat I have had with her, she listens and understands but she also gives me things to do and accomplish between chats which I enjoy.
I have been really struggling with my health lately which in turn has really affected my mental status causing depression and anxiety. Nicole has been a huge help to me with trying to find ways for me to cope and work through a lot of my feelings and worries. I love her! She is great!
Nicole is super easy to talk to. She is very active in sending me information on topics we discuss and always checks in to make sure I'm doing ok/give me positive feedback on my accomplishments. Would highly recommend!
Nicole has a very warm and calm demeanor that's very comforting. I've enjoyed talking with her and just wish our video sessions could be longer than 30 mins.
