Mental Health Counselor

Welcome. My name is Nikki. I provide therapy services at our Salem clinic.

I have a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a special focus on sexuality and somatics. My goal as a clinician is to empower people to lead the life they want, feel at home in their own bodies, and practice finding joy. I primarily work with individuals, groups, and couples 18+, but also work with teens. I work with all LGBTQIA+ individuals, have extensive experience working with people who are neurodivergent, and have a special interest in sex therapy and navigating how we view our bodies and sexuality as a whole.

Sometimes we know why we’re feeling the way we do, but we still can’t quite heal. Or we feel so overwhelmed, we don’t know where to start. I take a somatic approach where we look at your physical symptoms and identify emotions. I give you space to feel them with no judgement. You already have what you need inside you. I’m here to help you untangle the web.

For couples, I help with communication and building a strong relationship based on fun, partnership, and empathy. You may struggle to see eye to eye sometimes, but seeking counseling proves you choose to grow together.

It would be an honor to assist you in feeling more at home in your body and empowered enough to create your desired life. You got this.
