Nicole is a licensed independent social worker, private practice owner, and passionate trauma educator with over a decade of experience in the mental health field. She specializes in complex trauma, grief, and emotional regulation, and is committed to transforming how individuals—and systems—understand and respond to trauma.

Nicole is known for blending clinical expertise with heart, humor, and powerful storytelling. She recently spoke at the National Council on Mental Health Conference, where she presented to a crowd of 300+ peers on recognizing and responding to self-harm and suicidal ideation in youth. She brings authenticity and clarity to tough topics, making her a sought-after speaker for conferences, trainings, and retreats.

When she's not working with clients or educating professionals, Nicole is raising her kids, building a healing-centered practice, and dreaming up her next big idea to change the world (or at least the field of trauma therapy).
