About
Dr. Nicole Hofman, PhD, is a licensed Missouri psychologist (MO Psychologist 2015005498) who brings 13 years of clinical experience to her work with adults facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and addiction. Her practice addresses co-occurring difficulties such as mood disorders, substance use, process addictions, and the complicated emotional effects of shame, guilt, and family stress. She also focuses on concerns tied to life purpose, seasonal mood shifts, and social anxiety.
Her approach is trauma-informed and person-centered, described by Dr. Hofman as warm, empathic, and collaborative. She emphasizes exploring personal strengths, understanding past experiences, and developing practical strategies that align with each person’s goals. She works with individuals dealing with issues specific to veterans and armed forces, first responder challenges, women’s concerns, and other life transitions identified in her areas of focus.
Outside of professional work, Dr. Hofman enjoys hiking with her dogs and reading. Those interests inform a grounded, relational style in sessions and a preference for practical, experience-based steps toward greater balance and clarity.
Remote sessions with a trauma-informed, person-centered focus
Dr. Hofman offers remote care that emphasizes a trauma-informed and person-centered stance, helping people explore how past experiences shape current patterns and supporting them in defining meaningful goals. In a trauma-informed frame she attends to safety, pacing, and sensitivity to difficult memories, while a person-centered stance prioritizes the individual’s values and preferred direction. Those approaches combine with a collaborative therapeutic relationship to tailor steps that match each person’s needs.
Sessions can make use of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to maintain continuity and adjust to different preferences. The collaborative aspect means Dr. Hofman works with each person to select communication modes and pacing that feel manageable. This arrangement can suit people who want a flexible way to engage in consistent therapeutic work while drawing on approaches that center the person’s experience.
In remote work she focuses on practical strategies alongside reflective exploration, helping people translate insights into daily routines and coping options. Video, phone, chat, and messaging are all available to support ongoing contact and progress.How long has Dr. Hofman been practicing?
