About Nicole, LCSW
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Connecticut. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Connecticut, and after gaining professional experience in the corporate marketing world, I realized I wanted a career that felt more aligned and authentic to who I am. This led me to pursue a Master’s in Social Work at Fordham University, where I followed my passion for supporting others through life’s challenges.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients in a variety of settings—including a school, bereavement group, outpatient behavioral health clinic, and private group practice—supporting adolescents, adults, couples, and families.
My journey into motherhood began on a long, winding road of infertility challenges. This experience enhanced my empathy and strengthened my desire to be a safe, compassionate presence for others navigating the emotional complexities of infertility, early pregnancy loss, and parenting in all its forms. I now feel especially honored to support individuals and couples through fertility challenges, holding space for their grief, hope, uncertainty, and everything in between
I’m professionally affiliated with the National Association of Social Workers and trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy through Fordham’s Graduate School of Social Service. I bring warmth, authenticity, and a collaborative spirit to my work, and I’m committed to meeting clients where they are—with compassion, respect, and a belief in their capacity for growth and healing.
I value the fit of the therapeutic relationship above all else, and I am passionate about empowering you to feel seen and heard. I recognize the importance of tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each individual. My work will always be collaborative in nature with a focus on identifying patterns that may no longer be serving you and helping you to honor and hone in on your own intuition, as I believe everyone possesses answers within themselves.
I aim to compassionately hold you accountable, and I always strive to approach my work with clients from a strengths-based, holistic lens that allows clients to explore themselves and life's many challenges, free of judgement, in order to heal and grow.
My integrative approach draws from a variety of evidence-based techniques to support the therapeutic process, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic and Relational Therapy. I also provide tangible tools and strategies, knowing that your work outside of the therapy session is just as if not more important than the work done together.
