About Nicole
Nicole Bakewell is a Florida LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, depression, and relationship and family issues. Nicole also works with grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
She was born in New York City and raised mainly in the Poconos. Her work history includes community mental health and telehealth settings. That background shaped how she structures sessions and organizes goals with people who need clear, practical steps.
Nicole uses several therapy approaches to address problems in the moment and over time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her toolkit for identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and client-centered methods to keep sessions focused on what each person wants to change.
Sessions tend to be goal-oriented and action-focused. Nicole highlights behavioral and trauma-focused perspectives and works to help people notice patterns, try alternatives, and track progress between meetings. She aims to offer straightforward methods clients can practice in daily life.
Her experience includes work with children, couples, and families in earlier roles, and she has provided services in community settings and via telehealth. Prospective clients should use the matching process on the site to confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.
How her approaches shape online sessions
Nicole uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, sleep and mood problems because it focuses on practical experiments and clear skills.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at patterns in relationships and how early bonds influence current reactions. Client-Centered Therapy appears in her practice as a way to keep sessions focused on the client's priorities and to listen for the goals the client names.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will help clients decide together which methods to try based on symptoms, goals, and personal preferences. That makes the plan collaborative rather than fixed from the start.
The profile notes telehealth experience but does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday, reduce travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and skill practice to online meetings so clients can apply what they learn between sessions.
