As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC), Nicole is deeply passionate about exploring how the brain and the systems we live in shape mental health. Her therapeutic approach goes beyond the individual, thoughtfully considering the environments and relationships that influence well-being. Nicole believes meaningful change happens when we look at the whole picture.
Whether you're navigating a challenging season or seeking a fresh direction, Nicole meets you where you are. She walks alongside you with empathy and insight, helping you move toward where you want to be and who you want to become.
Therapy is a space where clients are the experts of their own lives. Nicole takes a client-centered approach, honoring each person’s unique experiences, insights, and goals. Together, she and her clients build a collaborative partnership that explores and strengthens their existing capacities. Nicole draws from feminist theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), systems theory, and mindfulness techniques to inform her work. Her goal is to support clients in developing new ways of thinking and behaving, while providing a safe, nonjudgmental space where they feel truly heard and supported.
Nicole’s clinical training comes from a trauma-focused, culturally sensitive graduate program, equipping her to work across a wide range of issues and identities. Nicole attended Minnesota State University-Mankato for her undergraduate degrees in Psychology and Gender and Women's Studies. Nicole attended Saint Cloud State University for her Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. She brings a compassionate and informed perspective to her work, whether clients are facing anxiety, relationship challenges, or trauma. Nicole is committed to creating a space where clients feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow.
