LGBT therapists in Richardson, TX

I am committed and dedicated to serving my patients and community. I am an advocate for mental health, and I integrate innovative treatments in my practice.

Hi, I’m Nicole! I’m passionate about bringing a relatable and contemporary vibe to the mental health space. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, and my professional background includes work in psychiatric outpatient hospitals, public schools, and private practice.

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.

I am a board-certified Family Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I've worked in different practice settings, including private practice, community mental health, homeless and correctional services, and addiction. I treat and manage a range of disorders ( depression, anxiety, bipolar, schizophrenia, PTSD, OCD, addictions, etc).

As a licensed professional counselor and psychotherapist, my relationship with my client is the most important aspect of the process. I strive for connection and a collaborative spirit. It is always my goal to help the client with their unique and special needs. Whether someone struggles with anxiety, depression, grief, stress, trauma, or general relational issues, I want to develop a plan with them that will be customized to their needs, and specific to what their desired outcome is.

Life can get heavy—whether you’re juggling family dynamics, relationship stress, parenting challenges, or just trying to stay afloat. Maybe you’ve always been the dependable one, the person everyone else leans on, but you’re starting to realize it’s time to focus on yourself. You want less tension, more connection, and practical tools that actually make a difference. You’re not after a quick fix—you just want someone real to help you sort things out and walk with you through the hard parts.
