About Nicole

Nicole Flores is a licensed social worker practicing in Michigan with two decades of professional experience.

Background and approach

She focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, depression, bipolar symptoms, and ADHD, along with related challenges like body image, obsessive-compulsive concerns, panic attacks, postpartum depression, and seasonal mood changes.

Her background includes work with adolescents addressing motivation, confidence, and emotional regulation, and she aims to foster a nonjudgmental space where clients can explore difficult feelings. Her therapeutic stance blends client-centered listening with practical tools drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness, alongside solution-focused and trauma-informed techniques when appropriate.

Nicole helps clients identify unhelpful patterns, build skills for coping with life changes, and set achievable goals. She presents herself as a collaborative guide, supporting people as they take steps toward more satisfying daily functioning and improved self-understanding.

Nicole holds an LMSW credential (MI LMSW 6801086514) and offers services through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are available via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, and she conducts therapy in English for clients located in Michigan.

Integrating Evidence-Based Tools into Online Care



Client-centered therapy emphasizes compassionate listening and meeting clients where they are; this approach helps create an atmosphere in which people can explore thoughts and feelings and identify personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on recognizing and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety, low mood, and struggles with focus or motivation. Mindfulness therapy trains attention and awareness skills to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, which can be useful for stress, trauma responses, and recurring anxious thoughts.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Nicole works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, adjusting methods over time so the plan fits each person's situation. Therapy evolves as progress is made and priorities shift, with regular conversation about what techniques are helping and where to try a different strategy.

Online therapy formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide scheduling flexibility and access from home or other convenient locations. These options allow work to continue during life transitions and make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing school, work, or family commitments.
