About Nicole

Nicole Flores is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 20 years of professional experience. She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, depression, eating and sleeping problems, anger, bipolar mood patterns, ADHD, and related life changes.

Nicole uses straightforward conversation to help people notice how thoughts and actions influence feelings. She listens for what matters most and supports clients as they try small changes. Sessions emphasize practical steps people can try between meetings, along with reflection on what helps and what gets in the way.

Her approach draws on Client-Centered work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to examine thinking patterns and behavior. Mindfulness strategies and Solution-Focused techniques are used to build short-term coping tools and clearer next steps. Trauma-Focused Therapy is included when past harm is part of the problem.

Nicole guides people through manageable experiments rather than long lectures. She encourages tracking progress and adapting plans when something does not fit. This makes sessions feel like focused practice instead of open-ended talk.

People who come to her often want relief from recurring anger, better ways to manage stress, or help calming strong reactions. Nicole helps name patterns, try different responses, and build more predictable routines that reduce daily strain.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting so clients feel understood while they work on goals. Online sessions use that same focus to clarify what matters most and to develop practical steps for everyday life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include brief exercises, behavior planning, and homework that can be tracked between meetings to measure what changes reduce anger or anxiety.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower immediate reactivity. These small tools can be practiced in short bursts during the day and reviewed in sessions to see which techniques actually help.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist works with the client to pick methods that match goals, preferences, and the problems at hand. That choice may shift as progress is made or new challenges emerge.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, working with a licensed professional online can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, try shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and practice new skills in the context of everyday life.
