Dr. Nicole Tefera

Clinical psychologist specializing in maternal mental health, infant mental health, Child Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), depression, anxiety and complex trauma across the lifespan.

My approach to therapy is centered on the unique needs of the individual, family or couple. I am trained in providing trauma-informed care, recognizing that past experiences can significantly impact one's outlook on life, present-day functioning, as well as overall sense of well-being. I believe that mental well-being is interconnected with physical, emotional, social, and spiritual health and encourage my clients to explore these connects and ways to strengthen each domain. I welcome a collaborative partnership and value the expertise that each client brings to therapy.

In each therapeutic encounter, my hope is that clients walk away feeling heard, supported, understood, and as a result, able to face the next day with more strength, optimism and self-confidence.
