Nicole has been a huge help and big eye opener for me. She is very considerate but also very honest and raw about situations with yourself. I definitely enjoy having her and the ability to have an open conversation with her without feeling judged.

More about Twynesha

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LSCSW, LCSW

Hello! My name is Nicole Reed, and I have over 20 years' experience in the mental health world. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in two States. I have successfully assisted children, adolescents and adults who have suffered a traumatic event in their life.

For 12 years of my career, I specialized in helping survivors of sexual abuse and assault. Many people are able to express they feel depressed, anxious, low self-worth, parenting issues, sexual identify, sleep difficulty and grief. For many it is harder to understand how trauma affects and amply those symptoms. Sometimes even harder to admit a life experience was traumatic.

I utilized Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focus Therapy, Trauma-Focus: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Procovery and Mindfulness to help you through this journey.

I believe in healing the mind, body and soul. No matter what you have experienced if you are suffering there is a better way. I look forward to helping you find it.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Reviewed November 2024

I absolutely love Nicole. She always takes the time to hear me and let me know not just what she’s hearing but what she’s seeing in my physical and emotion state. She watches behaviours while listening and asks the sometimes hard questions which is why I’m here. 1000 stars out of 5! Highly recommend

Reviewed November 2024

After only three sessions with Nicole, I already feel progress and hope. In honesty, I felt this way after just one session. Nicole is very relatable, and her advisement has made an impact on me both personally and professionally. I would give more than five stars if I could!

Nicole is patient and kind, but also very helpful! Therapy has never worked for me until now, & that’s because Nicole is very good!

I have found her insights quite helpful.

I’ve only had 2 sessions with Nicole but I feel really comfortable in every aspect with her.

Reviewed June 2024

True healing through therapy is not comfortable, leaves you feeling extremely vulnerable, and requires someone who is supportive but makes you go to places you’d really rather not. Nicole is 100% that person. Her ability to uncover the difficult things, even when you try your best to hide or skip over them, while also creating a safe and supportive environment is the exact reason anyone who is ready and willing to heal should work with Nicole. As someone who has been in and out of therapy for over a decade, I can honestly say I have made the most progress in the last few months with Nicole, and I finally feel like I am truly in a better place mentally. I am so grateful to have had such a positive experience, and I look forward to working with Nicole for a long time.

Nicole was extremely helpful to me. She’s a good listener, and was able to help me with assignments to do before our next meeting. She is extremely trained and educated. She also has a really great smile!

I Started my sessions with Nicole about 7 months ago and I have made a lot of positive progress. I didn't think I would get this far. Nicole is a very welcoming person who is patient, caring, and understanding. She's given me a lot of coping mechanisms that have helped me get any anxiety, anger, or fear under control and has helped me change the way I view things. She has also taught me how to recognize any signs for ptsd. I have also gotten a better understanding of the issues I've had to deal with for the longest time. I definitely recommend her help to anyone that is having a hard time with their mental health and needs somebody there.
