Nicolle has helped me to voice my frustrations. She encourages me to love me, to be happy with who I am today, which has been a lifelong battle through my shyness, low confidence, overcompensation, and resentment and anger. She’s helped me to look at overlapping patterns in my life be it relationships, money, my body… When I meet with Nicolle I know I’m going to get the feedback and accountability I need in an objective and practical way that’s not fueled by overwhelming emotions. It’s been a place to sit in my discomfort, which has allowed me to feel what I’m feeling. From this honest place, I’m finding methods to help connect to my husband, to set boundaries, ask for help, and take care of myself better. Thanks Nicolle!

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.

We’ve only had one session. So far so good, but I don’t think I’ve had enough time to have a considered opinion.
