From a young age as an “old soul” I’ve carried a deep desire to witness & share people’s stories. I have always been a deep thinker and feeler. Born and raised near the Great Lake Erie (PA), I attended Penn State for my undergraduate studies in Human Development & Family Studies as well as Sociology. People & their development, both individually and collectively as a group, continue to fascinate me. There is always more to learn. More than 10 years ago I moved cross-country sight unseen to Tucson to attend the University of Arizona where I earned my Master’s in Counseling & Mental Health. The desert completely enchanted me and I’ve never left! We live in such a beautiful, healing place.

As I dove into the fields of both behavioral health & education, it became apparent that families often aren’t set up for or connected to the resources necessary to thrive. With a background in elementary school counseling, I worked with a vast variety of populations of students, families, and staff to problem-solve and collaborate toward whole-person success.

I have been a Mental Health Therapist for 32 years working with Children, Adolescents and Adults.

Hi, I’m Nicole! Therapy with me is about real conversations, practical tools, and accountability. Clients often tell me they appreciate that I’m down-to-earth, supportive, and won’t let them slide. I bring a diverse background of both life and professional experience, allowing me to see multiple perspectives and help you navigate complex relationship dynamics. Please note, we aren’t offering couples’ sessions at this time.

My name is Kayla and I have 8 years of experience specializing in individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and substance use. I'm passionate about creating a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment. I believe healing happens through genuine connection, and I'm here to support and encourage you every step of the way.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with extensive experience across inpatient psychiatry, crisis stabilization, substance use treatment, residential care, intensive outpatient programs, and outpatient medication management. My background has given me the opportunity to work with individuals facing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, ADHD, substance use concerns, mood instability, sleep problems, and life transitions.

Clients often describe my style as calm, direct, supportive, and easy to talk to. I believe mental health care should feel collaborative, respectful, and practical. My goal is to help clients better understand what they are experiencing, explore treatment options, and build a plan that supports real improvement in daily life.

I have a strong interest in treatment-resistant depression, interventional psychiatry, and evidence-based medication management, while also recognizing that each person’s story, goals, and values matter just as much as symptoms or diagnoses.

I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma-related disorders, and behavioral challenges in children, teens, and adults. My approach integrates CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, trauma-informed care, and attachment-focused therapy to help clients build practical coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 12 years of clinical experience, including 4 years as a licensed counselor in behavioral health settings. I support individuals and families navigating life transitions, chronic stress, and complex emotional challenges, helping them move toward greater confidence and resilience.

I have extensive experience working with foster and adoptive families, focusing on attachment, trauma, parenting stress, and family transitions. My background within the Department of Child Services (DCS), juvenile detention, and family court systems allows me to guide families through both the emotional and procedural aspects of these environments with clarity and confidence.

I strive to create a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard and empowered. My approach is flexible and tailored to each client’s unique needs, ensuring therapy is both practical and impactful.
