She recognizes that taking the first step toward feeling better can be difficult and respects clients for beginning that process. Nicki offers sessions by phone, video, and messaging, and she works on this platform part-time so availability varies.

If a match with Nicki does not fit a client’s scheduling needs or clinical goals, clients can select the ‘Change Counselor’ drop-down option on the Counseling Tab at the top right of their page or notify her so she can request a referral.

How to Know If Online Therapy Is the Right Fit for You
For many common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or managing life transitions - online therapy can be as effective as in-person care. Research and clinical practice consistently show comparable outcomes for these types of issues when work is guided by trained professionals.
One of the primary benefits is flexibility. Clients can choose the format that works best for them - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to connect from different locations.
Licensed professionals deliver care through these channels, and clients may switch therapists if they feel another clinician would be a better fit. Online therapy offers an adaptable approach to accessing skilled support for everyday mental health and relationship concerns.
