Great to meet you!

Hi there, I’m Nicole, a licensed mental health therapist with 16 years of experience and I provide virtual therapy for women throughout Ohio.

Do you sometimes feel like you’re barely holding it all together? Whether you’re navigating college stress, the demands of motherhood, the weight of grief, or working to heal from trauma, you don’t have to do it alone.

I specialize in supporting women of all ages with anxiety, depression, burnout, trauma, and life stressors. I know how busy we can be as women and how easy it is to put everyone and everything ahead of ourselves. Therapy is an opportunity to put yourself on the list and take care of you.

My approach to therapy

I bring a mix of warmth, humor, and gentle directness to our work. Using trauma-informed therapy and evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT skills, and mindfulness, you’ll learn practical tools to help you manage your emotions, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and build more confidence as you move forward.

What you can expect from me

I know taking the first step can feel intimidating, especially when you’re searching for the right therapist and I truly appreciate you being here. You'll hear me say, "every good therapist has a good therapist", and I know for myself what it's like to reach out for help and understand how meaningful therapy can be. Let's connect soon and get started.
