Nikki knows firsthand that going to therapy can feel scary. Talking to someone about your struggles is a vulnerable place to be, so choosing a counselor you can trust and connect with is important. Nikki places value on building a therapeutic relationship that is supportive, trusting, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. Her goal is to help people facing everyday problems overcome challenges and live their best lives.
Nikki’s counseling experience has provided her with the privilege of working in various mental health settings, including mental health clinics and psychiatric hospitals, where she provided support to individuals, teenagers in and out of school environments, families experiencing a wide range of obstacles, community tragedy, and crisis counseling. This experience has allowed her to meet each person where they are and to better assist with identifying stressors in the hope of helping to cope with life’s everyday challenges.
