- I’m in your corner. I’m not here to judge, fix, or control. I’m here to understand, challenge when needed, and help you grow.
- I will tell the truth. Kindly, clearly, and without fluff. Progress requires honesty.
- I value structure and clarity. We will set goals. We will measure movement. We won’t just “vent and vibe.”
- I integrate evidence-based approaches. I lean heavily on CBT and Motivational Interviewing, with EMDR techniques when appropriate. Therapy with me is practical and action-oriented.
- I respect faith. If spirituality matters to you, we can thoughtfully integrate it. If not, we won’t force it.
- I believe people are more resilient than they think. My job is to help you access what’s already there.
- I hold both accountability and compassion. Growth happens in that tension.
- I’m human. I don’t claim perfection. I show up present, prepared, and fully invested in your development.
Hi, I share a home office with my four-legged boy, Jack. He is a pedigree mutt who helps keep me grounded during my workday. We help people with a variety of issues, and specialize in working with people who have lived through or are currently living through trauma. Big Ts that everyone recognizes as traumatic experiences, and Subtle Ts that people are often told to "just get over."
I became a therapist because I believe our struggles deserve to be understood, not just fixed. Too often, people come to therapy feeling like a problem to be solved or a checklist to work through, and that's exactly what I want to push back against. My goal is to help you feel more human, not more clinical.
I earned my Master's in Social Work from Northern Kentucky University in 2014 and hold a certificate in ADHD treatment. I work with adults navigating ADHD, depression, anxiety, and substance use disorder, and I bring both professional training and personal familiarity to these areas. I know this stuff isn't abstract. It shows up in real life, in real ways, every day.
Clients should know that I bring both professional expertise and genuine compassion to every session. I specialize in working with neurodiverse individuals, people managing anxiety or depression, and those navigating major life transitions. My approach is client-centered and collaborative, meaning I value your voice in the process and tailor our work together to your unique goals.
I believe in creating a safe, supportive space where you can be fully yourself without judgment. My role is to listen, guide, and equip you with tools that promote resilience, self-awareness, and growth. I also understand the importance of balancing mental health with real-life challenges like school, work, and relationships, and I integrate practical strategies to help you thrive in each area.
Most importantly, I want clients to know that they are not alone. Together, we will work at a pace that feels right for you, focusing on both healing and building the confidence to move forward.
Do you sometimes feel like you’re barely holding it all together? Whether you’re navigating college stress, the demands of motherhood, the weight of grief, or working to heal from trauma, you don’t have to do it alone. Hi, I’m Nicole, a licensed therapist with 16 years of experience and I provide virtual therapy for women throughout Ohio. I specialize in supporting women of all ages with anxiety, depression, burnout, trauma, and life stressors. I know how busy we can be as women and how easy it is to put everyone and everything ahead of ourselves. Therapy is an opportunity to put yourself on the list and take care of you.
