Who This Is For

Thoughtful Adults Who Are Ready for Something to Actually Change

Virtual therapy works especially well for high-functioning adults who are juggling a lot. You may be managing a demanding career, a full household, or simply a mind that never fully powers down. Getting to an office in the middle of the week can feel like one more thing to figure out.

Online therapy removes that barrier. You can show up from your home, your car, or anywhere private in California without losing two hours to traffic. The work is the same. The results are the same. The convenience is genuinely better.

You experience persistent anxiety, overthinking, or a nervous system that rarely powers down

You are carrying unresolved experiences that still show up in how you react and feel today

You are the responsible one and you are exhausted from holding everything together

You want therapy that goes beyond coping skills and actually addresses the patterns underneath

You are located anywhere in California and want access to a therapist who specializes in trauma and anxiety

You have tried therapy before and want someone who will actually get to the deeper work

How It Works

Simple to Start, Meaningful From the Beginning

Virtual therapy with Nicole works the same way in-person therapy does, just without the commute. Sessions are conducted over a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. All you need is a private space and a reliable internet connection.

1

Schedule a Free Consultation

We start with a brief consultation to talk about what is bringing you in and whether working together feels like a good fit. There is no pressure and no commitment required.

2

Get Set Up

You will receive a secure link for your session. All you need is a device with a camera, a stable internet connection, and a private space where you feel comfortable talking openly.

3

Start the Work

Sessions are 50 minutes and focused on what you actually want to change, not just how you are coping week to week. The approach is collaborative, personalized, and grounded in evidence-based methods including EMDR, trauma-informed therapy, and nervous system work.

Common Questions

What to Know Before You Start

Is online therapy as effective as in-person therapy? +
Research consistently shows that virtual therapy produces outcomes comparable to in-person therapy for anxiety, trauma, depression, and stress-related concerns. Many clients actually find it easier to open up from the comfort of their own space.
Do you offer virtual EMDR therapy? +
Yes. EMDR therapy can be conducted effectively via telehealth. Nicole uses adapted bilateral stimulation methods that work well in an online session format. Many clients find virtual EMDR just as impactful as in-person work.
Where in California do you offer virtual therapy? +
Nicole is licensed in California and provides telehealth therapy to adults throughout the state. This includes Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Sacramento, the Bay Area, Orange County, and all other areas of California.
What do I need for a virtual therapy session? +
You need a device with a camera and microphone (phone, tablet, or computer), a stable internet connection, and a private space where you feel comfortable speaking openly. Sessions run 50 minutes and are conducted over a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform.
Do you accept insurance for virtual therapy? +
Please reach out directly to discuss current insurance and payment options. Nicole can provide documentation for potential out-of-network reimbursement depending on your plan.
How is virtual therapy different from in-person therapy at the Pasadena office? +
The clinical approach, session structure, and quality of care are the same. The primary difference is location. In-person sessions are available at the Pasadena office for California residents who prefer or are able to attend in person. Virtual sessions are available to anyone located in California.
