At Nichols & Associates, we believe that taking the first step toward therapy is one of the most courageous decisions a person can make. Our practice provides a safe, confidential environment where adults, adolescents, and families can address life's most difficult challenges, without judgment, and at their own pace.
Led by a licensed clinical psychologist with doctoral training and extensive experience in crisis intervention, our approach is both pragmatic and deeply personal. We draw on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing, and we take cultural background, gender identity, and individual experience seriously in every session.
Not in New York City? No problem. Nichols & Associates offers telehealth therapy through our telehealth platform, making it possible to receive quality mental health care from wherever you are.
One-on-one therapy for adults and adolescents working through depression, anxiety, PTSD, burnout, life transitions, and more. Sessions are tailored to your goals using evidence-based methods, including CBT and Motivational Interviewing.
Rebuild communication, restore trust, and develop healthier patterns with evidence-informed couples counseling. We work with partners at every stage, from recurring conflict to navigating major life changes together.
Support for individuals struggling to manage reactive anger in relationships, at work, or in daily life. Our anger management therapy helps you understand what's driving the pattern and build more effective responses that protect what matters most.
Nichols & Associates has a specialized clinical focus in crisis assessment, intervention, and de-escalation, an experience that most outpatient practices do not offer. Structured, stabilizing support when it matters most.
Grief is not linear and does not follow a schedule. Our grief counseling services provide a compassionate, judgment-free space to process loss, whether that involves a person, a relationship, or a significant life change.
Chronic stress and professional burnout are clinical concerns that respond well to structured therapeutic support. We help clients identify the root drivers of burnout and build sustainable strategies for long-term recovery.

Dr. Nichols made me feel comfortable. Her demeanor was warm and I felt trust immediately that I was able to open up to her without reservations. I would highly recommend her and look forward to future visits.
I found Dr. Nichols to be a great listener, warm bedside manner, and very easy to talk to. In my search for a new therapist, Dr. Nichols checks all the boxes and I'm grateful to have found her on ZocDoc. Would highly recommend.
