About Nicole
Nicole Davis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and depression. Nicole also addresses related concerns such as attachment and abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, and feelings of isolation.
She holds two master’s degrees - one in Psychology and Counseling and another in Spiritual Formation. Nicole uses a person-centered stance in sessions, which means she listens first and follows the client’s priorities. She pairs that stance with cognitive behavioral, narrative, and solution-focused techniques to help people identify patterns and make practical changes.
Sessions are conversational and goal-minded. Nicole helps clients name what matters most, spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and test small changes that can lessen stress and improve relationships. She also works through difficult experiences related to trauma and abuse at a pace each person can tolerate.
Nicole pays attention to life context - work, caregiving, health concerns, and cultural or spiritual values. She aims to help clients build clearer communication and healthier boundaries, and to reduce guilt or shame that gets in the way of daily life. Progress is usually a step-by-step process focused on skills, perspective shifts, and realistic actions.
People coming from college, early career stages, or major life transitions often find the focus here is practical and direct. To begin, clients complete a short intake and plan an initial session where goals and next steps are clarified.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Nicole combines a person-centered approach with cognitive behavioral techniques and narrative work. Person-centered work focuses on listening first and following the client’s priorities to develop trust and clarity. Cognitive behavioral techniques look for patterns in thoughts and behaviors and teach practical exercises to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Narrative work helps people reframe their life stories and find alternative meanings for difficult events.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Nicole will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs, and preferences. That process usually starts in the first few sessions and can be adjusted over time as progress and priorities shift.
The practical benefits of working online include easier fitting of sessions into busy schedules, shorter check-ins when needed, and options for people who live far from providers. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online and in-person options before booking. Online work can make it simpler to maintain continuity across school, work, caregiving, and life transitions without promising a particular service or format.
