More about Nicole

  • 17 years' experience
  • Female
  • PhD

I am a highly intuitive psychologist and professional artist with experience in both private practice and top-tier academic medical settings (e.g., UCSF, Stanford University Medical Center). My style is affirming, holistic, empowering, and warm. As a multi-ethnic, queer therapist, I especially enjoy working with LGBTQ and BIPOC communities. I meet you where you are, offering a deeply attuned, supportive presence to help you navigate major life transitions and times of personal upheaval.
