My goal and purpose in life is to help others navigate through life's challenges with a holistic and organic approach. I have exemplified this in my practice as a Certified Trauma Professional. During my time working with those struggling with substance use disorder, I recognized that trauma was at the root of substance use, and traditional talk therapy didn't always work. Implementing EMDR and Brainspotting into my learning and practice has had such a positive impact with clients.

They specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ adolescents, particularly those who are neurodiverse and/or experiencing depression or anxiety.

This collaborative approach makes the journey as meaningful as the destination. Nik has a strong interest in holistic and trauma-informed care. Utilizing an eclectic approach, they draw from a social constructivist and person-centered/strengths-based perspective.
