About Nicole
Nicole Bakewell is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with eight years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, relationship problems, grief, and life transitions. Sessions are practical and aimed at helping people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.
She uses a mix of methods drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, attachment-focused thinking, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. In sessions she helps people track what triggers their anger and stress, practice new responses, and build better communication with others. The work can include short skills practice, talking through recent struggles, and planning steps to reduce repeated patterns.
Nicole has experience in community mental health and in telehealth settings. That background means she is used to helping people with a wide range of concerns, from addiction and trauma to parenting stress and sleep problems. She aims to be straightforward and practical about next steps rather than relying on abstract labels.
People who come for help with anger often also want support for relationship tension, past hurts, or stress at work. Nicole helps people identify what keeps anger cycling and then tests small changes that reduce explosive moments and simmering resentment. She offers coaching on how to repair after conflict and on setting boundaries without escalating.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Nicole notes that cost varies with location and that services use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. International clients are accepted and sessions are conducted in English.
How sessions work
How Nicole’s therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy helps people look at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions. It can be useful when anger ties back to feeling rejected, abandoned, or misunderstood by important people. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and priorities. It creates space to talk through what matters most and to try ways of responding that fit the client’s values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down situations into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and to practice different behaviors that reduce anger and stress.Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Nicole will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to try first based on current problems, goals, and what feels doable. That may mean starting with skills practice from CBT or DBT, then shifting to attachment-focused conversations when needed.
Her background includes telehealth experience, but the original biography does not list specific session formats. Confirm the available session types before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins on a workday, or remove travel time. They also let people practice communication and emotion-regulation skills in real-world contexts and bring concrete examples to sessions for focused problem-solving.
