About Nikole:
Hi, I’m Nikole. I’m so glad you’re here.
Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, relationship concerns, or just feeling stuck, therapy can provide a supportive space to talk things through and find new ways to move forward. It’s a place where you can be real about your experiences and ease the weight you’ve been carrying.
My goal is to create a safe environment where you can be yourself and feel truly heard and understood without judgement. I strive to bring warmth, curiosity, and cultural awareness into every session. My approach is collaborative, so we can shape each session to help you feel more grounded, confident, and equipped to navigate situations you’re facing. Together, we’ll look at what may be holding you back, identify patterns that no longer serve you, and develop tools and approaches that make it easier to handle life’s ups and downs.
As a first-generation American who grew up in a Greek and Guatemalan immigrant household, I bring a multicultural perspective and a deep appreciation for identity, individuality, and belonging into my work. These experiences shape how I show up as a therapist, and I aim to be thoughtful, supportive, and respectful of each client’s story.
I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy at California State University, Long Beach, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Southern California. I take a strengths-based approach, helping clients recognize their resilience and build on the resources they already have. My goal is to support you in developing deeper self-understanding and creating changes that feel meaningful and sustainable.
Support is here when you’re ready. To schedule an appointment, please reach out to our Care Coordinator team. I look forward to working with you!
