Nicole Schrader
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
·MSW, LISWAbout
Are you looking for a therapist who "gets it"? Are you searching for a safe spot to find relief from overwhelm, burnout, or simply needing more support in your life? The world is heavy right now, and you don't have to face it alone. My approach is inclusive, compassionate, direct, innovative, and non-judgmental, with some humor thrown in the mix. I work with clients managing anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, grief, single motherhood, communication skills, life transitions and more. I utilize EMDR, CBT, and holistic practices, such as mindfulness & somatic exercises, which are rooted in my background of over 20 years in the wellness industry. If you're here, I know you're ready to take the first step towards a more fulfilled life. I offer a free 15 minute consultation call. Please give me a call or send me an email, I'd love to chat about how I can help. I'm glad you're here.
"With a background in yoga, reiki, and bodywork, I am passionate about integrating holistic and somatic practices with evidence based methods like CBT, DBT and EMDR. As I work with primarily neurodivergent people, I also use a lot of Solution Focused Therapy skills and strategies to manage emotional regulation and executive functioning."
