Nickole Wyse , LMHC

Nickole Wyse is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who brings nine years of clinical experience working with clients in residential addiction treatment, correctional settings, and through online sessions. She has supported people facing a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, ADHD, low self-worth, codependency, family and relationship conflicts, trauma, and substance use, helping them develop healthier coping skills and reduce self-defeating behaviors such as substance use, self-harm, and persistent negative thinking.

Raised in Michigan, Nickole pursued a variety of life paths before returning to school in midlife to earn a BA in Psychology and an MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling through online study. She initially served clients located in Florida and now values the flexibility telemental health affords for reaching people where they are. Her practice is rooted in a client-centered orientation, offering unconditional positive regard while adapting therapeutic modalities to fit each person’s needs and goals.

Nickole aims to increase clients’ self-understanding, self-acceptance, and compassion through nonjudgmental exploration of their experiences. She blends warmth and a soothing presence with a straightforward approach to help clients make meaningful changes. Outside of clinical work she enjoys crafting, reading, movies, organizing, and being playful with family.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Nickole integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide her online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes active listening and unconditional positive regard, creating a collaborative space where clients’ priorities shape the work and where self-understanding and acceptance are central. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and patterns that feed substance use or self-defeating choices.

She also draws on mindfulness-based techniques to help clients develop present-moment awareness and coping strategies for stress and emotional dysregulation. Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process - Nickole collaborates with each client to select and adjust methods based on individual needs, goals, and preferences so the work fits the person rather than forcing a single method.

Online therapy with Nickole is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing scheduling flexibility and easier access for people with busy lives or mobility limits. These options allow clients to engage in consistent therapy from different locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor care to their circumstances.
