Nicole is a really good listener. It's been hard for me to find a therapist I click with. She is down to earth, energetic, and has a great vibe about her. I am learning more about myself and effective ways to cope.

More about Nicole

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I graduated with my undergraduate degree in psychology and my master’s degree in professional counseling, both from Lindenwood University. In my professional career, prior to being a therapist, I worked in the fields of vocational rehabilitation, pain management, drug and alcohol addiction, and applied behavior analysis. My practicum for my Master’s degree was completed at Northwest High School, where I held group sessions for at-risk youth and provided individual crisis counseling to students. I was a professor of undergraduate introductory psychology at Jefferson College and continue to see clients through my private practice.

Our problems, concerns and struggles in life often cannot be reduced to a simple diagnosis. As human beings navigating a constantly evolving and sometimes difficult world, we are accumulations of our experiences, patterns, skills, and desires. We sometimes need to enhance our abilities to cope or gain insight through seeing a different perspective, but we all have the innate ability to grow and heal ourselves. As a therapist, my goal is to assist you in attaining your desired outcomes and reaching a point of contentment in your life.

I work with a variety of individuals in an effort to help them sort through their thoughts, identify their feelings, and honor their present experience. I utilize an eclectic approach to therapy, incorporating person-centered and solution-focused models, as well as Gestalt’s techniques, and ACT to empower and challenge my clients to reach their goals.

While the needs that I see are varied, acceptance, understanding, and intentional focus on growth make my approach universally applicable. I hope that my studies and passion can help you on your journey to attain the calm, light, and fulfilling life we all work for and deserve. Take care and be well!

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.

I have been working with Nicole for several months and our sessions have only been getting better as she more fully understands my story. She has gone above and beyond for me with supplying resources for my religious and faith journey, as well as helped me develop the confidence I need to tackle some family issues head on. Our weekly video sessions are packed full of helpful discussion and actionable advice, and our instant messages between sessions have been very supportive of the work I’m doing. Nicole has supported me through some very difficult decisions and is helping me grow into a healthier and happier person.

I like the way she hear what I say and asks questions that helps focus on the parts I may be missing myself. There isn't anything she hasn't been able to understand and help me with and I'm grateful for her and the way she practices aiding my self development and self exploring

I love Nicole’s energy and support. she literally made me get excited to for our sessions. my enthusiastic approach is solely due to the open and cooperative environment she created in our sessions.

Reviewed January 2022

Every week I look forward to talk with Nicole, she is a great support in my life, if not the best I've got so far. Cause she treats me with respect and gives clarity to the issues I struggle with . Everything can be talke about. And in the beginning I was stupefied when she told me she is proud of me of taking the step to therapy, I didn't even know how much I longed for that to hear. Cause I thought that everything I did correctly, was seen as normal. I do still struggle to be proud of myself more often, but it great to know when someone is proud of you.

I feel incredibly lucky to have found Nicole. After a couple of failed attempts with therapists on here before, Nicole has shown me nothing but care and compassion. Nicole guides me through my emotions during therapy and helps me set really achievable goals throughout our sessions.

Reviewed November 2021

Nicole very adeptly guided me and supported me through many layered crises. The weekly sessions with her brought me through to a better understanding of myself and more confidence then I think I have ever had in my life. It felt like a great combo of important questions I couldn't face before and supportive patience.
