Nishauna Ball

Welcome!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience, I focus on supporting the whole person, not just their mental health. While we address your primary concerns, we won’t overlook other aspects of your life. My passion and excitement for helping others comes from knowing I’m fulfilling my purpose. In addition to therapy, my experience spans crisis intervention, substance abuse, inpatient psychiatric care, child welfare, nonprofit program development, and leadership. Some areas I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, stress management, grief, trauma, substance use, self-esteem, family stressors, and conflict resolution.

I believe therapy should be tailored to you, as everyone is unique. Using a client-centered, personalized approach, I take the time to listen, understand your life, and identify the challenges you're facing. Together, we create a plan to help you achieve your goals and grow. My style is collaborative, warm, direct, empathetic, and nonjudgmental, with a focus on honesty and gentle challenges to help you get the most from our sessions.

You can expect a safe, welcoming, and nonjudgmental environment from our first session, including telehealth sessions. The best therapy results come from feeling safe enough to be authentic and vulnerable. My goal is to create that environment for you. In our introductory session, we'll take time to allow you to share your story, and I’ll learn about you. Together, we’ll develop a plan centered around your goals. Life is unpredictable, so I believe in flexibility, allowing us to adjust your therapy as your needs evolve.
