Our shared aspiration is to find happiness and freedom from suffering. Life often leads us astray from our envisioned path, leaving us uncertain about what our ideal existence entails. At times, overpowering emotions like fear, anger, sadness, or shame dictate our actions and choices, causing us to lose sight of our authentic selves. Yet, within this pain lies the potential for profound transformation, as we discover awareness, insight, compassion and hope. Through the therapeutic process, we will embark on a journey to explore your unique experiences, unearth your truth, and initiate the healing of both past and present wounds.

I am here to walk you through the journey of hope to recovery, however that may look to you.

There are times when unexpected challenges, loss and seemingly ever-higher expectations overwhelm us. Unwanted repetitive thoughts may disrupt our sleep. We may isolate from friends and activities we previously enjoyed. We may experience dullness and a lack of energy. Counseling can help to ease the burden of life's painful and challenging circumstances. As a counselor, I appreciate the courage it takes to ask for help.

Schedule instantly through my website link! Hi, I'm Nicole. Relationships are the foundation of our lives. Through the quality of our connections with those we care about, we can feel as though we are thriving or they can leave us feeling isolated and alone. Working to strengthen or rebuild connections with others and with ourselves is extremely important to creating a sense of support and acceptance. If our foundation feels secure and safe, we can then allow ourselves to thrive in other areas of our lives. I have special training in relational therapy and how to strengthen these "systems" and the influence they have on our lives.

Have you found yourself putting off mental health treatment for longer than you’d care to admit? Maybe you’ve tried to tough it out on your own, hoping the problem would just disappear if you ignored it long enough. Or perhaps you’ve bought into the idea that seeking therapy means you’re “weak” or somehow “crazy,” so you’ve avoided it altogether. But now, it feels like your fears have grown into this huge, scary monster, and you are feeling overwhelmed, scared, and utterly lost. You might be feeling confused or frustrated, asking yourself “How did I get to this point?”

Choosing to change—to rekindle passion and purpose—with the help of a therapist is hard work. So, thank you for being here; let’s see if I might be a good fit. My goal is to share skills and to help process whatever is keeping you from experiencing a sense of wholeness that connection to your passions and purposes brings. While I see people of all ages, I tend to work with teenagers and adults and with those experiencing grief, suffering from trauma, or facing existential/identity turmoil. Outside of counseling, I am a bookworm with a particular taste for sci-fi or philosophy, and I delight in restoring vintage or antique items.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
