Meet Niki. Our newest master level practicum student. Niki has years of experience as maternity nurse. She has also taken additional training, in addition to her master degree, to work with couples as well as individual clients. We’re so glad she is here!
A word from Niki: As a student therapist, I am passionate about supporting individuals and couples through life’s challenges, including periods of increased stress, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. Whether you’re navigating relationship dynamics, adjusting to changes in your personal life, or managing emotional stress, I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space to explore and address these challenges.
I work collaboratively with clients to identify patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior that may be contributing to distress, and I utilize evidence-based interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients develop healthier coping strategies.
My background as a Labor and Delivery nurse has given me a unique perspective on the emotional and physical challenges that come with major life transitions, especially the perinatal and postpartum periods. My nursing experience has deepened my understanding of the complexities surrounding childbirth, parenthood, and the adjustment to life after baby, both physically and emotionally.
Whether you’re coping with stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, or adjusting to new roles, I’m here to support you with evidence-based tools and a holistic approach to your well-being.”
