Nicole Belanger

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor passionate about supporting adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, emotional regulation, life transitions, and performance-related pressures. In addition to my clinical background, I bring experience as a former NCAA All-American student-athlete, collegiate coach, athletics wellness professional, and strength & conditioning coach. I especially enjoy working with athletes, high performers, college students, and individuals seeking a more holistic approach to mental health and overall wellbeing.

My approach to therapy is warm, energetic, collaborative, and holistic. I strive to create a supportive environment where clients feel comfortable, understood, challenged, and empowered to grow. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and strength-based, solution-focused techniques while recognizing the important connection between mental health, lifestyle, performance, and overall wellness.

Clients can expect a welcoming, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where we begin building a genuine therapeutic connection. During the first session, we will explore your current concerns, personal goals, strengths, and experiences to better understand what support may be most helpful for you. My goal is for clients to leave feeling heard, comfortable, and hopeful with excitement about beginning to work toward meaningful goals with a plan, practical tools, and support alongside them throughout the process.
