Sometimes people show up for therapy with a defined idea of how they want their lives to be different and what goals need nourishment. Others simply know they are yearning for something 'more'...usually something that resembles peace and relief. No matter who you are, and what peace looks like to you, I'd love the honor of walking beside you on your path. My hope is that our time together will offer you new perspectives, renewed hope, healed wounds and invigorated joy. Whether you feel burdened by loss, change or the heaviness of this chapter of life, or are simply wanting connection, I'm here and thrilled to connect.

Accepting New Patients! Hello, my name is Nicole Buckley, Licensed Clinical Therapist. My philosophy is that when we feel understood by another, we are able to untangle the issues that lead us into therapy in the first place. This can help us to develop ourselves and our lives on a deeper level. Therapy is a special opportunity to be understood by another person. I also provide a warm, genuine and collaborative style to help my clients work towards change. My goal is to provide a safe place for healing and personal growth.

I provide adult individual psychotherapy, specializing in depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and trauma recovery. I help people identify thinking or behavior patterns that may be preventing them from resolving emotional issues, managing relationships, or achieving life goals. Sometimes treatment involves behavioral methods such as practicing new skills, keeping behavior charts or journaling. Other clients may simply need information, resources or strategies to solve a specific problem. I am always there to provide support through empathy and encouragement. Please Note: Email is the best way to reach me.

Over the past 12+ years, I have been very fortunate to have worked in many multicultural environments, empowering individuals in different cultures and backgrounds, clinically in my professional work at inpatient and outpatient mental health programs, and socially in my volunteer work in the community.

Currently accepting new clients and offering both in-person and virtual sessions! I specialize in working with mothers who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, and/or who are just feeling overwhelmed. Being a parent is a joy like no other, but it is also immensely demanding. Experiencing your own difficulties while also trying to be there for your child(ren)’s needs can be extremely exhausting. It is so easy to lose yourself in it all. I am here to help you navigate your role as a parent as well as to help you find the space to foster your own self-compassion and self-care.

While working in social services and as a teacher, I discovered a drive to help improve mental health of those I served. I now have over thirteen years of experience supporting mental health and larger systemic issues. I have experience working in a variety of mental health settings including: working with youth in the legal system, veterans, teens and adults with eating disorders, people without housing, and neurodivergent people.

I love facilitating therapy groups and am particularly passionate about empowering other women by equipping them with healthy coping skills, encouraging them to identify & reframe any negative core beliefs and providing them with a safe and nonjudgmental environment to rewrite their narrative. In these groups, you will be reminded of the strength and resiliency you already carry inside you as you open up about your fears, hopes and dreams alongside other women. 

Therapy is a journey where people can be accepted just as they are and gain support in navigating their internal world to find healing and growth. Time spent living in different cultures has given me a deep level of respect for the diversity of human experience and the interconnectedness of beliefs, relationships, environment, and mental health. I believe that understanding the narratives we have about ourselves and how they came to be can help us break free from shame and overcome barriers in our lives- ultimately gaining the capacity to redefine our sense of self.

I enjoy helping others find meaningful, authentic ways of connecting in their relationships and communities. Those I work with tend to feel a lack of connection in their life, whether from isolation or ways of connecting that aren’t authentic or free in expression. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process in which we get to recontextualize our experiences through truthful and empowering reframes. This includes curiosity in how your identity and lived experience has shaped your worldview. I am professionally and personally passionate about geek and gaming culture and am comfortable weaving this into therapy when appropriate.

Psychotherapy is a bridge to well being. I am currently accepting new clients between the ages of 18 and 52 for individual, family and couples counseling.
