Nickole Wyse, LMHC

Nickole Wyse is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with nine years of experience working with clients in residential addiction treatment, correctional settings, and online individual care. She is licensed to serve clients located in Florida and has supported people facing a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, ADHD, low self-worth, codependency, relationship and family struggles, trauma, and substance use issues.

Combining life experience with formal training - a BA in Psychology and an MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling earned online - she helps clients replace maladaptive strategies such as substance use, self-harm, and persistent negative thinking with healthier coping skills. Her practice centers on a client-centered orientation that emphasizes acceptance, empathy, and collaboration, while integrating evidence-based techniques tailored to each person’s needs to foster greater self-understanding, self-compassion, and lasting change.

Clients can expect a warm, attentive presence, a nonjudgmental space for exploring difficult experiences, and a therapist who adapts methods as goals evolve. Outside of her clinical work she enjoys creative projects, reading, movies, organizing, and playful time with family.

Integrating therapeutic approaches in online care

Nickole Wyse often blends a client-centered approach with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing to meet each person's needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening with empathy and acceptance so clients can explore their experiences and values; it helps people build self-compassion and trust in the therapeutic relationship. CBT offers practical, skill-based work to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and impulsive or addictive behaviors. Motivational Interviewing supports people who are ambivalent about change by strengthening personal motivation and aligning goals with values, often helping with substance use and other behavior change efforts.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. She partners with clients to assess goals, preferences, and circumstances, then adjusts methods over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual's priorities.

Online therapy makes that collaboration accessible through flexible formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - so clients can engage in care in ways that fit their schedule and comfort level. These options help licensed professionals offer consistent, reachable support for people navigating stress, addiction recovery, trauma recovery, relationship concerns, and other life challenges.
