Thank you for taking the first step toward your healing! Walking with clients on the path toward better wellness is truly an honor. My core values are the growth, honesty, love, curiosity and justice, which all show up in my work with clients. I pride myself in co-creating a safe space for clients to be fully seen, heard, and supported. My approach is inclusive, compassionate, direct, innovative, and non-judgmental, with some humor thrown in the mix. With four years of clinical therapy experience, and two decades of experience in wellness, my philosophy integrates mindfulness, breathwork, and holistic practices.
I’m passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges, processing past trauma, and developing coping skills to build an empowered life. I work with clients navigating trauma/PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief, single motherhood, communication skills and life transitions.
I am grateful that you're here, taking the first step towards a more fulfilled life. It would be my pleasure to work with you. I look forward to connecting with you to see if we are a good fit!

She has been so helpful and kind to me. She is helping me work through my most difficult problems I’m dealing with

By sheer luck, Nicole and I shared some common history that was relevant to my situation. I suspect that we were on different sides of that history - yet she did not allow that to interfere with her professionalism. I found that particularly impressive.
