About Nicole
Nicole Bakewell is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who focuses on practical help for people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, parenting strains, and relationship or family concerns. She also supports those facing grief, trauma, sleeping or eating struggles, ADHD, and challenges with self-esteem or intimacy. Nicole aims to make therapy straightforward and useful for everyday life.
She brings eight years of professional experience and has worked in community mental health and telehealth settings. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. Sessions center on talking through immediate problems and building skills that fit each person's goals and daily routines.
Nicole draws from approaches such as client-centered work, attachment-focused strategies, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, and emotionally focused methods. She adapts tools to what each person needs rather than using one fixed method. That means practical emotion regulation, clearer communication, and step-by-step behavior changes when helpful.
People can expect a collaborative process that looks at what’s getting in the way now and what small changes might bring relief. Nicole is comfortable discussing complicated histories like trauma, abandonment, adoption and caregiving stress while keeping sessions focused on present goals.
Sessions are offered in English and Nicole accepts international clients. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist’s availability.
How Nicole’s approaches fit online care
Nicole uses client-centered work to focus on each person's goals and preferences, helping people feel heard and involved in deciding what comes next. This approach is useful when a person needs space to name priorities and build confidence in small steps.She also applies cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT-style work can help with anxiety, mood shifts, sleep and practical habit changes by breaking problems into manageable tasks.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Nicole will collaborate with each person to decide which tools to try first based on needs and daily life. That means checking in regularly and adjusting methods if something isn't helping.
Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work and family schedules, require less travel time, and make it simpler to keep a steady appointment routine. Because the therapist has telehealth experience, she can discuss options that fit your timing and goals. Confirm the current session formats and scheduling details before booking to make sure they match your needs.
