Razalyn Nickola
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with adult clients to improve anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and self-worth. I have a background working with anxiety disorders such as Generalized Anxiety, OCD, Social Anxiety, Agoraphobia, Specific Phobias, as well as Depression, workplace stress, and Adjustment Disorder.
I believe my greatest strength is cultural humility, which allows me to hold a nonjudgmental environment while viewing my clients as sole individuals.
I use various therapeutic modalities to support my clients in making meaningful life changes.
First session
In our first session we will discuss what brings you to therapy, what you can expect from therapy and what you can expect from me as your therapist. We will also complete a psychosocial assessment that gives me a better understanding of your past and current state of being. We will get to know each other and set your individual goals.
Strengths
I believe my greatest strength is cultural humility, which allows me to hold a nonjudgmental environment while viewing my clients as sole individuals. I also consider my ability to empathize and sympathize with my clients as a great quality and strength.
Ideal clients
I work with adolescents and adults 13 years and older. I specialize in anxiety, depression, life transitions, and attachment trauma. I have experience working with diverse cultural populations, ages, races, genders, and sexual orientations. I work from a curious mindset and am open to learn from and explore with each of my clients. My aim is to support my clients with passion, humility, and humor from time to time.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use CBT to help patients connect how thoughts influence our emotions and behaviors
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I use DBT to help patients become more in touch and aware of how to identify and regulate emotions
Attachment-based
I use this theory to help connect and treat childhood experiences to how you present as an adult in relationships and show up for yourself.
