Asking for help shows your strength. You are navigating life’s challenges and you don’t have to do it alone. Hi I'm Nicole, a clinician and life coach with a background of working with and supporting a diverse group of people and needs. I would love the opportunity to assist you with overcoming current challenges and adversity. If you need an empathetic, non judgmental ear, I am here. I have over 27 years of mental/behavioral health experience. I work with teens, adults, couples, and also assist with parenting/co- parenting concerns. My experience and training helps me to competently serve clients with from various demographics with a diverse list of needs from corporate level stress to victims of crime, trauma, anxiety, and military related struggles, even everyday stress, relationship challenges, and promotion of self-love/self-care. The goal is to provide hope and tools that create change. Many times all we need are the proper tools, support, and the willingness to change. These changes can impact our families and bring hope to those we love as well. These tools can then be used in every area of our lives to achieve goals. In the process I want to celebrate your strengths and help you feel empowered. To me you are not just a number or name, here we truly care.

BOTTOM LINE UPFRONT…I have all the degrees, certifications, licenses that everyone has and probably more. What really matters is my journey and my ability to help you with yours. I have struggled with depression, anxiety and unresolved trauma. I had moments I didn’t recognize myself. I felt lost and alone. After several years of being in this place, I realized I was doing a poor job of hiding my emotions, life and circumstances from my children. I was teaching them how to be depressed and how not to engage with life. I did not want this version of me to be my legacy. So I sought help. I took action and did the work. Along the way, I finally acknowledged the source of my pain wasn’t only PTSD. It was low self-esteem, unhealthy beliefs and the stories I told myself as a kid. It was the traumas I witnessed and experienced. It was the unfair expectations of masculinity. And the everyday stress of being a melanated man in America. Everything I experienced, the negative thinking, self-destructive behaviors, sexual abuse, unhealthy self-esteem, lack of clarity, being afraid and being paralyzed, all prepared me for purpose and led me to my passion for helping others stop the emotional pain and dysfunctional behaviors created from unresolved issues. My life is an example of how it's possible to overcome the obstacles and barriers that have kept so many bound and imprisoned. I operate from vulnerability and authenticity. I deal with the hard stuff: depression, trauma, suicide, addiction, being stuck and without direction. My superpower is I’m not afraid to walk you through the shadows and the valleys. In fact, I encourage it because it’s necessary to get to the better side. But only with someone experienced like me. How much better would life feel if you had more money, real-solid relationships, you stopped self-sabotaging, you actually showed up & gave the haters a bigger purpose? And how amazing would it be if you were able to have clarity, purpose, and peace? It’s possible. I have witnessed the transformation of hundreds of people. I know it’s possible for you too! For over a decade, I have helped people overcome unresolved issues, create boundaries and have a mindset reset so they can achieve the best possible today. Families and relationships have been restored, addictions and strongholds have been broken. My clients have stopped the cycles of depression, anxiety, self-sabotaging behaviors, and generational curses have been broken. As a result of my clients efforts, they have stopped limiting beliefs and negative thinking. They were able to build confidence, clarity and self-esteem to go after and achive their dreams, have meaningful and fruitful relationships, to have peace and make a lot more money. I offer my optimism about your future and my ability to help you achieve your goals. My approach to helping is direct and goal oriented. We are going to meet, address the issues and implement skills so you can begin mastering the art of living.
