Therapists in North Carolina

My name is Nicole Richardson and I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2020. I was born and raised in mid-Michigan and moved to Eastern NC when I was stationed at Cherry Point in the Marine Corps. I started my own journey with mental health around the age of 22. In 2017 I started my professional journey with my undergrad degree in social work at UNCW. I then went on to obtain my master's through The University of Southern California. I enjoy plants (to a fault), hiking and exploring, painting, and music.

I am a professional counselor, consultant, human development and nature healing specialist. I am licensed with the state of North Carolina Board for Licensed Professional Counselors (#6516) and a National Certified Counselor (#229164). I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education in 1996 and both Masters and Specialists degrees of Education in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Florida in August of 2000. My continuing ed & training focus has mainly been on trauma and dissociation throughout the last 26 years. The majority of my life experiences have centered around learning as much as I can about trauma and dissociation; how we can increase our awareness in order to increase our "window of realness." We often hear about improving our "window of tolerance" in order to tolerate the ever more increasing demands of our world. By increasing our "Window of realness" we move toward our most authentic selves. I often use an eclectic approach bringing together a variety of types of therapy to help my clients express what they need to express from the various different developmental levels that traumatic material gets stuck within. For example in one session you may find we start out by talking and end by drawing, playing, or dancing. Whatever brings you in: trauma, grief, struggling with dissociation, anxiety or depression, it's my hope that by providing a soft place to land, you will feel comfortable enough in your own skin to begin to be curious to explore what's on your mind. You'll feel acknowledged, respected and empowered as an individual, as a human being, with rights and needs, through the compassionate and empathic way that I will relate with you. From, the very first session, you can begin to claim back your power.

You are stressed and filled with anxiety. Your thoughts are negative and you lack self-confidence. You feel so overwhelmed by emotions that you no longer know what you feel. Or maybe you are emotionally shutdown and just feel numb. Past traumatic events cause you to react to life in unhealthy ways. Intrusive thoughts keep distracting you from what you need to do each day. And you don’t understand why or how to change it. If any of this sounds familiar, there is hope! It is possible to retrain your brain and to develop different ways of thinking about life. You can stop automatically reacting and learn to thoughtfully respond to stressors. I would love to work with you and help you better manage thoughts and stressful emotions.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with nearly 40 years’ experience in the field of behavioral health.I look forward to working together to help you learn ways to explore your thoughts, feelings and actions, and how you can manage anxiety as well as improve your personal relationships. Together we can set goals and break these goals down into steps that you can accomplish one by one to see steady progress.

If you are looking for support on your journey of self-discovery or dealing with some stressors, I would love to help! I enjoy working with individuals who may be struggling and need an empathetic ear. I believe everyone can improve their sense of well-being with some support. Some things I enjoy include spending time with my friends and family, visiting the beach and mountains, and doing arts and crafts.
