Nicole 

Director and Lead Social Worker

Hello, I'm Nicole, your therapist and ally in your journey towards healing and growth.
 
As a single mum raising two amazing girls and our lovable miniature schnauzer named Harvey, I intimately understand the joys and challenges of balancing family life with personal aspirations.

My story began in the Southern Suburbs of Adelaide where I was born and raised, and where I choose to raise my family. I found myself seeking knowledge when I was on maternity leave and whilst processing my own journey through adverse childhood experiences, I found myself wanting to be better equipped to help those around me. Motivated by those childhood experiences and the desire to improve the lives of children and families, I pursued a Graduate Diploma of Integrated Psychotherapy, laying the groundwork for my career in therapy. I opened a private practice, specialising in relationship counselling and family therapy.

Driven by a desire to deepen my understanding and better serve my clients, I continued my education, obtaining a Bachelor of Psychological Studies. However, I couldn't shake the feeling that there was a missing piece in my approach, prompting me to transition into a Master of Social Work, where I finally found my true passion.

My professional journey has taken me into mental health, education, children and families and the disability sector, where I've dedicated myself to supporting children and families in building fulfilling lives.
 
Along the way, I immersed myself in the world of play therapy, undergoing training in Child-Centered Play Therapy to enhance my skills.

Today, I am honored to offer an integrative and holistic approach to therapy, tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual I work with. With me as your therapist, you can expect unwavering support, empathetic understanding, and a commitment to guiding you towards a life of greater fulfillment and emotional well-being. Whether you're navigating personal challenges, family dynamics, or seeking growth and self-discovery, I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way.
