My Approach

Nikki is an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider and has a special interest in working with adult women navigating ADHD. She enjoys helping clients better understand how ADHD shows up in their daily lives and relationships, and supporting them in building practical, sustainable strategies that align with their strengths. Nikki also has a strong passion for working with women during pregnancy and in the postpartum period as they navigate the transitions and challenges of parenthood. Nikki aims to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients can process their experiences, build confidence, and feel supported during this significant life stage. She is also trained as a substance abuse counselor in outpatient care. She brings extensive experience supporting clients through trauma, helping them navigate and heal from challenging life events with empathy and evidence-based strategies.
