Great to meet you!

I’m Nicole Gordon, LCSW, LICSW, LCSW-C, a licensed clinical social worker providing therapy to clients in Texas, Washington, DC, and Maryland. I have over 20 years of experience in behavioral health, with a professional background that includes clinical therapy, school social work, and supporting women through major life transitions, stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges.

My approach to therapy

My approach is direct, compassionate, and practical. I help clients process their experiences, identify patterns, build emotional awareness, strengthen boundaries, and develop coping tools that support real change. Therapy with me is not about pretending everything is fine. It is about creating a space where you can be honest, feel supported, and do the deeper work needed to heal and grow.

What you can expect from me

Our first session will begin with a review of some paperwork. We then will discuss where you are right now, what you may have tried and how it's working (or not) as well as discussing what your goals are for therapy. This will help me to understand how to support you in your journey.
