About Nicole

Nicole Rossetti is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, parenting challenges, and relationship and intimacy-related issues. She approaches problems plainly and practically, helping clients set manageable goals and try concrete steps between sessions. Her style is collaborative - clients steer the work while she offers direction and tools.

Nicole works from New Jersey and draws on 11 years of clinical experience. Nicole uses a mix of therapies to match what each person needs.

Background and approach

She blends cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation. She also uses emotionally focused techniques to look at attachment and connection, and mindfulness to teach present-moment coping. Sessions often include skill practice, brief experiments, and planning for real-life situations.

Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Columbia University and clinical licensure as an LCSW. Nicole has helped people address issues such as ADHD, depression, workplace stress, substance use, and self-esteem concerns. She also supports people with money and financial stress, body image, and quitting smoking or vaping.

Nicole describes therapy as a partnership. She helps clients break big problems into smaller steps and tests approaches that fit their life. Progress is measured by the changes clients can use day to day rather than by jargon or labels.

Telehealth is part of her practice, allowing for video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging sessions. Nicole emphasizes flexible options so people can access support in ways that fit their schedules and needs.

Approach and online therapy options that fit your life

Client-centered therapy puts the person’s goals first and focuses on listening, respect, and collaboration. It helps people who want a supportive space to sort priorities and decide next steps.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It teaches simple tools to change thinking patterns and try new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.

Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving coping. It is useful when impulsivity, strong mood swings, or relationship conflict make daily life harder.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Nicole will help figure out which methods match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences and adjust the plan as progress unfolds. The process is collaborative, with therapist and client deciding together what to try.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow follow-up between longer sessions. For many people, online formats offer flexibility while keeping the therapeutic focus on practical change and skill building.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

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.
