Nicole believes every person has strengths, challenges, and a unique story shaped by their relationships, experiences, biology, and environment. She believes God created us to know and be known, yet life can bring brokenness into our relationships with ourselves, others, and the world around us. Counseling offers a space to explore these experiences, recognize strengths, develop new skills, and move toward meaningful change.

Nicole uses a collaborative, person-centered approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), narrative, mindfulness-based, existential, and family systems approaches. She believes counseling should be flexible and tailored to each client’s individual needs and goals.

Before pursuing counseling, Nicole worked for many years as a registered nurse, including significant experience with children and adolescents. She has also served in church ministry with children, adolescents, and adults. She has a particular interest in counseling children, adults, and families navigating neurodivergence, life transitions, and the challenges of caring for children with complex medical needs.

Nicole considers it a privilege to walk alongside clients as they learn more about themselves and their stories. She hopes to help clients recognize their strengths, challenge unhelpful patterns, gain skills, and broaden the meaning of their stories as they work toward meaningful change.
