About

Hi there, I'm Jennifer! Hello! My name is Jennifer Nickel, and I am a LMFT. I have worked in a variety of areas and with a wide range of ages. We all face challenges and encounter obstacles in life that sometimes seem impossible to manage. I love what I do and being able to support and help people to move through and past those times in our journey that we all go through. My approach Person-Centered My focus I am happy and open to working with anyone who is ready to begin the journey of healing and dealing. My communication style I am honest, and direct but kind. I use humor and am very open and understanding. My journey to therapy In general, all my life I have noticed that people have felt comfortable opening up and sharing with me. I used to work in the medical field, my favorite part of that work was interacting with patients and noticing how much their demeanor improved by taking the time to listen and support them. So, I went back to school and changed my career. I absolutely love what I do and being able to support individuals as they work through issues that sometimes seem overwhelming. My goals for you Goal setting is a collaborative effort between the patient and therapist. My first session with you The expectation should be to communicate their expectations and hopes for the therapeutic process. We will discuss what has been going on, what has worked and what has not, and formulate a plan together.
