About Nickole
Hello! My name is Nicki, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for clients located in Florida. I have nine years of experience providing therapy in residential addiction treatment, prison, and individuals online. I have worked with patients and clients with widely varying presenting problems including anxiety, depression, ADHD, low self-worth, codependency, family/relationship issues, and trauma, to name a few in addition to addiction. I have helped people learn healthy coping skills to reduce maladaptive strategies such as substance use, self harm, negative thought, and other self-defeating behaviors, and begin to build satisfying lives for themselves.
I grew up in Michigan, and explored unrelated career paths while moving through my life and relocating eventually to Florida. Life experience inspired me to my destination as a therapist, and in mid-life I earned my BA in Psychology and MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling online. I am now living in Michigan and am grateful for the portability of telemental health!
I have found that people need a safe person to share their innermost experiences with and to be met with unconditional positive regard to break the barriers that stand in the way of progress toward improved mental well-being. I approach therapy with a client-centered orientation with the ability to adjust with appropriate modalities to clients’ needs as they are presented, with the goal of increasing clients’ understanding and acceptance of and compassion toward themselves. I enjoy learning about others’ experiences and interacting in a fun yet soothing way. Exploration of experiences without negative judgment can lead to amazing and meaningful change!
While therapy is a very satisfying occupation, I also enjoy making a multitude of things, reading, movies, organizing, and spending time being silly with family.

Her ability to provide helpful resources demonstrates her genuine commitment to supporting her clients' growth and well-being. I highly recommend her services.”
- “I cannot express enough gratitude for the transformative experience I've had with Nicki as my therapist. From our very first session, she created such a warm, understanding, and non-judgmental space that allowed me to truly open up and explore deeply.<br /> <br /> Nicki has an extraordinary ability to listen intently, offer profound insights, and guide you towards self-discovery with such grace and empathy. She equipped me with invaluable tools and perspectives, helping me navigate challenges, understand myself better, and ultimately build a stronger foundation for my mental well-being.<br /> <br /> Thanks to Nicki, I've reached a point where I feel genuinely empowered and confident in my ability to navigate life's complexities on my own, and with the support systems I've cultivated. She truly is an amazing therapist, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking compassionate, effective, and truly life-changing support. Thank you for everything, Nicki!”
- “I enjoy our conversations every week and have grown a lot since starting to see my therapist. She has been an amazing guide in my journey down the path of healing.”
- “Amazing therapist! Each session just gets better, more understood and at ease with whatever is going on. She truly knows how to listen and creates a safe space for you to let it all out. 10 out of 10”
- “I could have been so much better and further along had I found her sooner”
- “She is wonderful and I enjoy our conversations each week.”
- “She is amazing, makes me feel very safe and free to open up without judgement! She is also very good about offering practical tactics and sharing her knowledge for actual real-world solutions/strategies I can implement. Sometimes therapy can seem very abstract and I was worried before I started that it wouldn't be practical or useful. Nickole makes it very actionable and even though I've only been seeing her for a short time, I am very hopeful and glad to have matched with her. If you're like me and on the fence about therapy in general or this app in particular, just try talking to her for at least one session. Even if you ultimately don't want to keep going, I promise you won't regret the time you spent talking with her.”
- “She is absolutely amazing and I always look forward to talking with her. She has helped a lot.”
- “I couldn't ask for a better person to talk through difficult times and situations. She has helped me grow and understand what I'm going through.”
- “Good listener, very engaging and kind.”
- “I really am thankful for my therapists help and advice”
- “She is the one of the nicest therapist I ever met.”
