I work with adults, couples, and teens, helping people untangle challenges that often feel overwhelming, interconnected, or hard to name. I believe most struggles don’t exist in isolation—they affect our relationships, our emotions, and how we move through the world. My role is to truly get to know you, understand your story, and support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.
My background is both clinical and academic. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, along with graduate degrees in Philosophy and Sociology, and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Communications. I’m also a doctoral candidate in Educational Psychology. This combination allows me to look at your concerns through emotional, relational, and systemic lenses—not just symptom-focused ones.
I specialize in trauma work, relationship therapy, and working with preteens and teens—who are often misunderstood but incredibly important to support early. I’ve trained in EMDR, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), CBT, Art Therapy, and Conflict & Dispute Resolution. Above all, I value creating a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely supported.
Let's be real, sometimes life gets in the way of living! There are just time when life is not always the way we want or thought it would be.
People keep saying that you are so strong, but you don't want to be strong and you definitely don’t feel strong. You know you have people around you that love you and also you feel alone. You want to believe that you’ll find yourself again. If you’re losing hope that you can manage all the things in your life, counseling can help!
- Enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults, family and marriage populations.
- For past several years I have worked in both private and public school settings.
- Hold a certification in both Trauma and Christian Counseling.
Hi, I’m Nicole! I’m passionate about bringing a relatable and contemporary vibe to the mental health space.

I specialize in working with children, teens, and adults navigating the complexities of ADHD, Autism, PTSD, Anxiety, and OCD. My approach is holistic and comprehensive; I believe that while I provide the clinical tools, you remain the expert of your own life. I’m here to act as your partner in bridging the gap between your daily routine and your core values.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Garland, TX
Searching for therapists in Garland starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. You may be looking for therapy in Garland, TX for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, or life transitions. If you are exploring marriage counseling in Garland, look for therapists who list couples work, communication patterns, trust concerns, or family relationships in their specialties. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Garland offers access to therapists across areas like Firewheel, Downtown, and nearby Dallas–Fort Worth communities. In-person sessions may work well if you prefer a local office, while virtual therapy can give you more appointment options across Texas. As you narrow your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand each therapist’s style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Garland can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and see your estimated price before you book. Headway helps you compare therapists, review availability, and book directly when you are ready. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage for your plan and location. This makes it easier to find a therapist who matches your needs and is ready to take new patients, and you can confirm whether they accept your plan on Headway.
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.
