About

My name is Nicole (she/her) and I work as a Mental Health Counselor in Washington state. I work to hold space for others in their development of mental wellness and self-discovery.
I believe therapy should be strength-based and dynamic, to identify negative thinking and create new empowering narratives for healing. My method of treatment pulls from various evidence-based practices to help adults impacted by eating disorders, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and identity crisis. I have earned my Masters in Community Counseling from Seattle University and am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
I am here to help guide your self-reflection to establish a healthy relationship with mind and body. Our work together will be a collaboration, and I strive to be conscious of cultural and spiritual values and adapt therapy to best fit each unique individual.

Some interests that have been key to my wellness are enjoying the outdoors, painting, traveling, dance studios, and nurturing relationships with family and friends. I hope to empower you in incorporating self care practices as well, and will encourage self compassion exercises in our sessions. (The Mindful Self-Compassion Workbook: A Proven Way to Accept Yourself, Build Inner Strength, and Thrive by Kristin Neff).
The path to recovery may feel isolating and daunting; by seeking out help I applaud you for taking the first step. I look forward being a part of your journey working towards your healing and peace.
