I am passionate about coming alongside you to help reach your goals! I am honored to be a part of each client’s process for healing and change, and value addressing whatever needs and goals are specific to you.

I have been working as a mental health counselor for over ten years, and my favorite part of the job is seeing the resilience and transformation process with each of my clients. I have experience working with individuals of all ages, families, and couples with a variety of concerns including anxiety, addiction, depression, relationship concerns, and trauma.

I am an LMHC that specializes in treating trauma and I'm passionate about working with my clients to find the healing that they have been wanting. I also value being a therapist that is a BIPOC individual, and welcome my clients to bring their cultural concerns and racial trauma to work through in sessions.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Casselberry, FL


Hey there! My name is Nikki :) a little about me is that I view my clients holistically and from a systems lens. I enjoy learning about my clients within the context of their childhoods, environment, and the culmination of their life experiences. I am very familiar with grief and find fulfillment in helping clients process major life changes and transitions. If clients are open, I incorporate spiritual understanding and meaning-making. As an LMFT, I love to assist clients in improving communication with others, especially loved ones, or to assist in boundary-setting strategies. A huge focus of mine is client empowerment and self-love, which extends to how one navigates the world!

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, weighed down, or stuck carrying things you rarely say out loud, you don’t have to do that alone. I work with people navigating depression, anxiety, substance use, trauma, attachment wounds, and PTSD. In therapy, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what you’re carrying, and help you build a life that feels safer, steadier, and more like your own. Nothing is “too much” here, and you get to set the pace.
