Nicole is very welcoming and understanding, connected with her the first session and opened up to her during the first session. She makes you feel very comfortable and cares deeply for her patients. 100% recommend her and i always feel better after talking to her.

Nicole has been an immense help - she's given me thoughtful and considerate feedback as well as challenged me in ways that has helped to expand my own self-esteem as well as blind spots and behaviors. She's also been extremely adaptable with challenging schedules and with making it a point to find different ways to approach therapy whether it is through journaling, small mindfulness exercises, recommended books and videos, as well as our regular one-on-one calls. Her demeanor is extremely disarming and has been so helpful to help me better understand myself. I'm so grateful for her presence along this journey.

Really patient and understanding. Good listener and great at making me feel comfortable, she always ask if I had something in mind to talk about or if I’d like her to lead the conversation which I appreciate!
