About Nicole
Nicole Dewispelaere is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 10 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strains, low self-esteem, and depression, and she lists life purpose among her focus areas.
Nicole helps people who are adjusting to changes in work, relationships, or health. She also addresses communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, forgiveness, mood concerns, self-love, and women's issues. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented rather than overly technical.
Her practice draws on client-centered ideas and cognitive behavioral techniques. She uses mindfulness and solution-focused methods to help people notice patterns, test small changes, and build practical habits. That means identifying the thoughts and routines that keep someone stuck and trying new ways of responding.
In a session she listens, reflects, and offers concrete suggestions to try between visits. She pays attention to how daily routines, relationships, and self-talk affect mood and motivation. People can expect short-term strategies alongside deeper conversation when needed.
Nicole asks clients to pick a clear topic or question to start with, such as clarity about work, healing after separation, or improving communication. She guides small experiments and tracks what helps. The overall aim is to increase options for making decisions about what matters next.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting to clarify what matters to the client. It helps people identify priorities and make choices that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, behaviors, and mood and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, and motivation problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Sessions may mix listening, skill practice, and small homework experiments so progress can be tracked and adjusted over time.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals often use video for face-to-face conversation or audio for lower bandwidth and quicker calls; discuss with her which will fit your routine and needs.
