I completed my education in California and my post graduate work in Hawaii. My training had a heavy emphasis in relationships but my career has been heavily clinical. I have worked in a residential treatment center for substance use as well as eating disorders, a psych hospital, a university, a church counseling center, and private practice shared with psychiatry. Very few topics I am not competent to tackle with you at this point!
I have been in the counseling field for over 30 years and practicing as a licensed counselor for the past 7 years. I have worked with a variety of populations to include children, adults and families. I'm a very genuine person that enjoy assisting others with developing the best version of themselves.
With 20 years of clinical experience, I specialize in exposure to trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, and fertility issues. I graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill (BA Psychology), and from Harvard University with my Master's of Education (EdM) in Risk and Prevention, and Certificate of Advanced Study (CAS) in Counseling. I provide evidence-based treatments to adults, teens, and children (ages 6+) from various backgrounds, and provide therapy in English and Spanish. I work collaboratively with each client to set and achieve your goals. I'm a parent and appreciate the intense love and efforts along that journey. I love dogs, travel, sports, martial arts, and trying new foods.

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.
Life is full of wonderful moments and overwhelming challenges. As a licensed clinical social worker, I strive to provide support through all of life’s moments. You may be having overwhelming thoughts that feel out of control or feel frozen in social settings. Maybe you’re waking up in the mornings and getting out of bed feels like an impossible task. Perhaps you’re feeling disconnected from family or peers. Or maybe you’ve been through unbelievably challenging experiences that you’re ready to start healing from. Whatever it may be, I’m dedicated to providing an open, safe environment to help you create lasting positive change.
I am an LCWS-R (NY)/LISW-CP(SC) with over 20 years of clinical experience across a variety of settings including: school social work, outpatient specialty clinics, crisis intervention, structured outpatient programs, inpatient psychiatric facilities, large non-profits, and private practice.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about helping children, adolescents, and families feel supported, understood, and empowered. My background includes working with children and families in therapeutic, advocacy, child welfare, and community-based settings. These experiences have shaped my compassionate, strengths-based approach and my belief that every person deserves a safe space to be heard.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Myrtle Beach
Searching for therapists in Myrtle Beach starts with knowing what kind of support and fit matter to you. Therapists can help with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, and stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to focus on. A profile that mentions cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples counseling, or experience with specific populations can help you decide who may be a strong match.
Myrtle Beach has therapy options across the city and nearby areas like Socastee and Briarcliffe, though local appointment supply may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options if you want more flexibility or prefer to meet with a South Carolina-licensed therapist from home. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can also show how they describe their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Myrtle Beach can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, take your plan, and offer clear cost estimates before you book. You can browse therapists in Myrtle Beach, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
