About Nicole

Dr. Nicole Nonclerc greets parents who are tired, worried, or unsure where to start. She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 13 years of experience.

She focuses on issues parents often face, such as stress, anxiety, sleep problems, grief, parenting challenges, and addiction-related concerns. Her tone is straightforward and practical in sessions. Nicole uses clear tools that parents can try between meetings.

She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change patterns of thinking and behavior.

Background and approach

She also uses motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. Sessions aim for concrete steps rather than abstract talk. Her background includes long work in mental health and addiction settings.

That experience informs how she helps people navigate complex challenges and life transitions. She brings a problem-solving stance while respecting each family’s daily realities. Therapy with Nicole is collaborative.

She asks questions, listens, and helps shape a plan that fits the family’s schedule and values. She explains skills, models strategies, and checks in about what is working. Sessions may feel direct but supportive, aimed at practical relief and steady progress.

Parents can expect clear goals, homework that makes sense for real life, and a focus on coping skills that carry into everyday routines.

Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care

Dr. Nonclerc uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more useful ones. CBT often focuses on small experiments and practical changes that can reduce anxiety, depression, and sleep problems.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness techniques to teach emotional regulation and stress management. DBT-style skills help when emotions feel overwhelming, and mindfulness practices support calmer focus and better sleep.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nicole collaborates with each person to decide which tools fit their goals and daily life. She adjusts plans as progress is made and as needs change.

Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into busy family routines. Video calls let therapists and clients see each other and practice skills together. Phone, live chat, and text-based messaging are options for shorter check-ins or when a video session isn’t possible. These formats offer flexibility for parents balancing work, school, and childcare while still working on concrete skills and coping strategies.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
