I'm an LCSW with a passion for social work, currently on the journey towards my doctorate. My expertise lies in cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness therapeutic interventions, and somatic processing. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, as well as knowledge pertaining to the LGBTQ community. Beyond academics, I serve as a field advisor for social work students, shaping the future of the field. In my free time, I enthusiastically volunteer in my local community and share playful moments with my hyperactive and adorable kitten.

Hi, I’m Niko, a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) with two years of experience providing compassionate, trauma-informed care to children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I take a client-centered approach to therapy, honoring each person's story and working collaboratively to support healing, emotional regulation, and growth. Whether you're navigating anxiety, parenting challenges, or seeking better coping skills, my goal is to create a safe, affirming space where you feel seen and supported. I integrate a variety of evidence-based approaches—like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy—tailored to your needs. I also deeply value inclusive care and proudly work with clients from LGBTQIA+ communities, diverse relationship structures, and those seeking sex-positive, body-positive, or kink-affirming support. When I’m not in session, you’ll find me on my small farm tending to my organic garden, caring for my two cows and mini donkey, Oakly, making art, and soaking in the peace of nature.

“I want to feel happier and less depressed.” “We would like to improve our relationship.” “I would like to feel calmer and more in control, in spite of the stress, loss and trauma I have experienced.” “We want to help our children cope with our divorce.” “We need to figure out how we are going to live as a divorced family.” These are some of the most frequent goals of my clients as we work together. Many of the stresses and conflicts my clients face can be due to life’s experiences and losses or can come from within. Stress and conflict can lead to disintegration of relationships with our partners and our children, and even in how we view ourselves. Strengthening coping skills, emotional connection and intimacy can help repair fractures, increase compassionate understanding, and build closeness. Focusing on positive growth, shifting well-engrained patterns, and building greater self-acceptance can create lasting change and happiness. As a clinical psychologist with over 40 years of experience, I help adults, couples and families, by integrating many different therapeutic approaches to best fit my clients’ needs.

I believe therapy is a place not only for understanding and working through struggles but also for growing and creating more joy and connection. I love working with people who are curious about themselves and may label themselves as a highly sensitive person (HSP). Those who feel intensely and are acutely aware of the hurts of others. Those who find themselves giving time and time again to others while sacrificing their own needs. I also have a special interest in complex and childhood trauma (those who were hurt, neglected, abused, or not loved properly as a child). Together we can work to notice, identify, and tap into your inner strengths. We will challenge messages you may have gotten growing up that no longer serve you (you have to take care of others, you are too sensitive, you don't belong). And we will help you develop greater self-compassion so that you can take better care of yourself, do the things YOU want to do, set boundaries with others, and ultimately foster more joy and connection in your life.
