More about Nichole

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCPC

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Montana. I have been working in Comprehensive School and Community Treatment (CSCT) for over 3 years. This program is school based and works with children and their families. I have helped them with trauma, abuse, depression, anxiety, reactive attachment disorder, addiction, behavior issues, parenting issues, identity issues, relationship issues, etc.

I have training in EMDR, Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), Sensory Motor Arousal Regulation Treatment (SMART), and I am currently working on getting training in Biblical Counseling. I have a strict "no judging" policy and my goal is to provide a space that is open and honest. Others have described me as open, honest and easy to talk to. Dealing with your "stuff" is hard work and it takes commitment and grit. I won't ask you to do something I haven't done myself. My goal to build a trusting relationship with you that is supportive and offer tools and insight to work through those issues so you can have the life you desire. I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Therapy with Nichole Selvig helped changed my outlook and perspective on the challenges I was facing at the start of my journey with her. I had no idea how to navigate though my issues and felt lost. She was very attentive to what I needed to do as after following her advice and recommendations I felt more empowered and at peace. I can confidently say she has given me the proper tools that I can continue to use and build off of to sustain a more comfortable environment for myself and growing family. Thank you, Nichole!!!

Nicole is amazing. Professional, easy to talk to and her experience is so helpful. She helped me get through some really tough times and suggested ways to navigate and nurture relationships. Thanks Nicole!

Nichole is great. From our first meeting I felt comfortable enough to open-up about some very real feelings and concerns. Typically I don’t like people and have had to hide my true self both professionally and personally. I have always been the go to, happy, fix-it person, the problem solver. Nichole understood and got me from the first meeting.
