What can I expect from counseling?
Nicole offers a holistic approach to counseling, meaning she takes time to learn about each client's environment, past and present relationships, challenges and traumas, stressors, and the client’s physical condition. Then we work together to determine the goals of therapy. She approaches the needs of each client holistically through therapies that engage mind, body, and soul.
What are Somatic Practices?
Somatic therapy is a bottom-up approach to counseling as opposed to typical talk therapy which is a top-down approach. Soma means 'body' and it's focus is on getting clients connected to their body. In somatic therapy, the body is the starting point to achieve healing. This form of therapy cultivates an awareness of bodily sensations, and teaches people to feel safe in their bodies while exploring thoughts, emotions, and memories.
