About Nicole
Nicole Flores is an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker practicing in Michigan with 20 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and grief, and addresses concerns like self-esteem, depression, and motivation.
She uses clear, practical conversation to notice thoughts and habits that make things harder. Sessions involve looking at unhelpful thinking, trying different responses, and practicing small changes between meetings. Nicole also draws on mindfulness and solution-focused ideas to build day-to-day coping skills.
Her approach is straightforward and person-centered. She listens without judgment and focuses on what is useful now. Together with the client she sets concrete goals and checks progress regularly.
Nicole has worked across settings for two decades, which shapes a pragmatic style. She brings trauma-focused methods when needed, while keeping work oriented to immediate problems and routines. That can include managing sleep, appetite, mood swings, or panic moments.
People who choose her often want simple steps they can use at home. Nicole explains techniques in everyday language and assigns brief, doable exercises. She recommends follow-up options based on how well each strategy fits the client's life.
How her approaches fit into online therapy
Nicole uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts, test new thinking, and build small habits that reduce anxiety and low mood. CBT sessions focus on practical steps and homework so progress can be tracked between meetings.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and responding to each person's concerns without judgment. That approach helps people feel heard and guides the selection of practical strategies. Mindfulness Therapy is used to develop attention and grounding skills that can reduce reactivity and improve sleep and mood.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, try a few methods, and adjust based on what helps most. That process is part of the work rather than a separate stage.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work, school, or family commitments. Online work can make short check-ins, regular weekly sessions, or focused skill practice easier to schedule and maintain.
