Hi! My name is Nicole, but you can call me Nikki. After 21 years in practice, I am ready and able to help you reach your goals, try new things, change your life...whatever you are working on, I consider it a privilege to walk your journey with you. Let's get started helping you be the best version of YOU!

I specialize in working with adults who are struggling with issues such as depression, anxiety, substance use, trauma, and pregnancy & postpartum changes. As a dually licensed therapist and addiction specialist, I have worked in community mental health for 14yrs in a variety of settings and had the honor to walk alongside a diverse range of people in their healing journey. I believe healing happens in the context of safety, trust, and connection. Together we will find the right balance of the "why" and "what now." My ideal client comes with an open-mindedness and curiosity to explore themselves and are motivated to practice experiential activities both in and outside the session.

Hi, I'm Mindi and I have a passion for helping people find their best selves. I have my LCMHC Licensure based in my home state of North Carolina. Here I'm blessed with beaches and environmental beauty, it truly inspires me to live each day to the fullest. I'm interested in helping you do the same! I'm here to listen and get you on a healing journey to a better, stronger, and happier self.

I am a Person-Centered, Gestalt therapist that uses interventions from various modalities. I am a hypnotherapist. I am EMDR trained.

I believe we are born innately good, creative and self-actualizing. It is my greatest gift to companion with others on the full spectrum of their human journey. Healing happens when we feel heard, seen, and "gotten" by another. Relational trauma and societal conditioning can cause us to doubt our inner sensings and disconnect from our deepest truth. I specialize in helping trauma survivors reclaim and trust what is most authentic in themselves. My clients are often sensitive, intelligent, creative and motivated to heal.

It takes courage to reach out for support. I offer a free 20 minute phone/zoom consultation to ensure that we would be a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you.

I have experience in several treatment settings, including inpatient and outpatient. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, and various addictions, as well as seniors experiencing challenges unique to their life phase.

Welcome to the first step to your healing journey!

Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about coming home to yourself. If you’re ready to feel more grounded, more seen, and more aligned with who you really are, I’d be honored to walk that path with you.

I am passionate about helping people find clarity, healing, and a deeper connection to themselves. I work with adults and older adults navigating challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, identity exploration, and life transitions—and I offer a space where you don’t have to hold it all alone. I was drawn to this work because of my own journey. Growing up, I often found myself holding space for others—listening deeply, asking questions, and offering comfort. Over time, I realized that being present with people in their pain, and witnessing their growth, was not just something I cared about—it was something I was meant to do. That sense of purpose continues to guide me today.
