She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 24 years of experience. Her style is practical and straightforward, aimed at helping people find clearer ways to cope and move forward.
Nikki focuses on common and painful problems like panic, social anxiety, depression, anger, and low self-esteem. She also helps people work through grief, trauma, compassion fatigue, and major life changes.
Background and approach
Sessions often include concrete tools for daily life as well as time to talk through feelings and patterns. She often brings Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas support people who want to change how they relate in close relationships.
Client-Centered Therapy is central, which means sessions are shaped around each person’s priorities and pace. Nikki has worked with a wide range of family situations over her career. That includes adoption and foster care issues, blended family challenges, divorce and separation, and communication problems.
She also addresses addiction concerns, domestic violence recovery, and codependency dynamics. Online and remote formats are available, so people can connect by video, phone, chat, or text messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and then scheduling follows according to therapist availability.
Online therapy approaches that focus on feelings and thinking
Nikki commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions follow the person’s own concerns and pace while the therapist offers listening, reflection, and support. This approach helps people build trust in the room and figure out what matters most to them.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT tools can help with anxiety, panic, depression, and managing cravings during addiction recovery. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used to help people understand patterns in close relationships and to change how they respond when emotions run high.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide whether to emphasize client-centered listening, CBT skills training, or EFT relationship work. Goals, preferences, and real-life needs guide the plan so therapy fits the person rather than the other way around.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for in-depth sessions, phone can be a lower-tech option, chat works for shorter check-ins, and text is handy for quick reflections or ongoing support between visits. These options help people fit sessions around work, caregiving, and travel.
