Hi, I'm Nicole. I provide patient, trauma-informed care for children and adults who may need a little more understanding, flexibility, or individualized support. I have more than two decades of experience working with people across the lifespan, and I approach care with curiosity rather than assumptions. I take time to learn how each person communicates, what helps them feel safe, what can become overwhelming, and what allows them to thrive. My approach incorporates play, emotional awareness, mindfulness, sensory needs, and respectful boundaries. I especially enjoy helping people build confidence and independence without pushing them beyond their own pace. Every person and family is different, so I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. My goal is to create a relationship and environment where the person I'm supporting feels safe, respected, and genuinely understood. .
