More about Nicole

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

I believe that every person deserves space where they can speak openly and honestly, exploring challenges, core beliefs and vulnerabilities that keep them stuck or in a place of emotional discomfort. I place emphasis on developing a therapeutic relationship, establishing trust to help you reach your individualized goals. My training and success includes working with mental health issues that may be long standing, those struggles that persist unresolved, e.g. anxieties, unrelieved depression, fears that overshadow you, a sense of meaninglessness, persistent conflicts in relationships, and painful results of trauma and loss.

I have specialized training to use several evidence based practices such as Eye Movement Desensitizing and Reprocessing (EMDR), CPT, Prolong Exposure, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy in Action, and SMART Recovery. With all that said I ensure my tool box is full to assist the mental health needs of all my clients.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.
