Nicole Schellinger

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Hello my name is Nicole and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the state of Ohio and a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of South Carolina, and I have been working as a counselor since 2006. I look forward to the possibility of getting to have the opportunity to work with you, and being able to be part of your mental health journey.
I feel that my counseling style is warm and inviting while trying to remain focused on my clients individual needs. I believe that the sessions are for the client and I try work to meet clients were they are by approaching the counseling sessions with understanding and compassion. I use techniques from many different theoretical counseling approaches and some examples of the commonly used approaches would be cognitive behavioral (CBT), solution focused therapy, and/or motivation interviewing approaches to work with my clients to determine their treatment goals and needs.
I have been offering session using BetterHelp for the last 2 years and before my time with BetterHelp I had practiced for 15 years (2006 to 2021) in a community behavioral health setting. I have had the opportunity to work with clients experiencing issues related to addiction, depression, anxiety, coping with stressors, life changes, relationship and/or family issues, trauma, ADD/ADHD, to name a few. I have completed my undergraduate program in addictions studies from University of Cincinnati and have also completed a Masters in Education program from Lindsey Wilson College majoring in Mental Health Counseling.

Thank you for taking the time to read about me and I look forward to getting to work with you,

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help them. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions. A major benefit is the flexibility it offers. Individuals can connect with a therapist in the format that suits them best – video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging – which makes it easier to fit counseling into a busy life. Licensed professionals provide these services, and if someone feels they need a different fit, they can switch therapists at any time. Online therapy can be a practical option for those seeking accessible, consistent support for everyday mental health challenges.
