Hello, my name is Nicole. My primary goal is to support you in leading a more fulfilled, resilient, and meaningful life. I appreciate your interest in my practice and am honored to share my professional background with you. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Social Work from La Sierra University and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from California Baptist University. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #78932) in the state of California. With over 20 years of experience in the helping professions, my work reflects sustained clinical involvement across community care, psychotherapy, and complex systems of care. Since founding Facetyme Therapy in 2014, I have maintained a private practice supporting individuals, couples, and families through a wide range of emotional and life challenges. Over time, my clinical focus has expanded to include work within forensic and medically complex environments, allowing me to develop experience at the intersection of mental health, legal, medical, and other high-stakes professional systems. My clinical experience includes working with adults and children on concerns such as anxiety, mood disorders, grief and loss, trauma, and post-traumatic stress. Throughout my career, I have conducted diagnostic assessments, facilitated treatment planning, and provided therapy tailored to each client’s unique needs. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and family systems–informed, strengths-based clinical support. Treatment is individualized, with an emphasis on regulation, insight, and practical strategies that support meaningful and lasting change. I am committed to creating a safe, compassionate, and professional environment where clients can reflect, regulate, build resilience, and navigate meaningful change.
