More about Nicole

  • 10 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

My name is Nicole Vicente and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the State of Florida and Maine. I received my Master's Degree in Social Work from the University of Maine in Clinical Social Work. I have experience working with adults, children, couples and families. I have worked in a variety of practice settings to include community, home, nursing facilities, office, and healthcare environments as well as working with multidisciplinary teams. I have experience working in child welfare, hospice/homecare, geriatrics, memory care, caregiving, and grief/loss. I am a nonjudgmental strengths based social worker who is not afraid to use humor, focus on the reality of the situation, or challenge clients when therapeutically beneficial. I believe people often have the answers and insight they need to make improvements in their quality of life. I start by building rapport and getting to know my clients in order to develop a relationship of trust. I believe understanding my clients personality and history is a fundamental requirement in doing good work. Working with me means collaborating to break down problems/concerns and to develop maintainable goals and problem solving techniques to improve overall life satisfaction. Deciding you need help is a major first step, the next step is reaching out and finding someone that is good fit for you. If my expertise and approach seem to be a good match for you, than I encourage you to reach out and take the next step. I look forward to getting to know you and collaborating to make positive changes.

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.
