More about Nikita
- 19 years' experience
- Female
- LPC, LMHC
I’m a licensed therapist in Alabama and Washington State with years of experience supporting clients through anxiety, grief, life transitions, and relationship challenges.
I work especially well with motivated people navigating medical anxiety, repetitive or body-focused habits, and the stress of feeling stuck in unfulfilling relationships. Many of my clients come to therapy with clear goals and a strong sense of independence — they’re ready to do the inner work and want a space where they can feel safe, seen, and empowered.
Together, we’ll identify what’s holding you back and move toward more fulfilling connections, increased self-trust, and the future you envision. My approach is collaborative, grounded, and attuned to both where you are now and where you’re headed.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Very supportive and helping in figuring out what’s best for you! Easy to talk to!
I love Nikita. She listens so well to my jabbering. I have real issues and get to them eventually. But I love that she lets me talk and get there on my own.
Extremely knowledgeable, and easy to talk to.
Nikita is a great therapist very good at providing perspective and understanding in a way that helped me to find the solutions for the issues that I’m dealing with in a way that works best for me.
Nikita is amazing she listens and you can tell that there is genuine care there. She’s made me feel extremely comfortable and that I matter. She checks in on you regularly which for me is an extreme plus! I couldn’t have asked for a better therapist especially with it being my first time!
