MEET NIKKI

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals and families facing complex emotional, behavioral, and health-related challenges. My professional background spans clinical mental health care, population health, care management, and healthcare consulting—giving me a broad understanding of how personal distress is often shaped not only by internal symptoms, but by systems, stressors, and expectations that are difficult to navigate alone.

In addition to my clinical training, I am a Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional and Certified Care Manager. This means I take a thoughtful, whole-person approach--paying close attention to how chronic stress, biology, life circumstances, and often-overlooked contributing factors can influence emotional well-being. This perspective informs how I listen, assess, and collaborate with clients, while remaining firmly grounded in ethical, evidence-based psychotherapy.

My practice is guided by my Christian faith, which informs my values around compassion, dignity, purpose, and respect for each person’s lived experience. I strive to reflect these values in how I show up for clients and in how I operate my practice. Clients are never expected to share my faith or incorporate it into therapy. Some seek out a clinician who understands faith as part of their worldview; others simply come because they want thoughtful, high-quality care in a supportive and nonjudgmental space. All are welcome.
