1 Lawrence Street, Glens Falls, NYHello there — I’m Nic 👋🏼
If you’re looking for a provider who doesn’t just listen but truly hears you, you’re in the right place. My goal is for you to leave each session with clarity, confidence, and those meaningful “ah‐ha” moments that move you forward.
With 20+ years in healthcare — from military corpsman, dental assistant, cardiac sonographer, a labor & delivery and behavioral health nurse — I bring a broad, compassionate, and grounded perspective to the work we’ll do together.
Let’s build a strong foundation for your well‐being, growth, and long‐term success.

I'd like to assist those struggling, by bringing an awareness of being grounded in the moment; whether through mindfulness or being in a creative flow, to achieve optimal wellness. I'm interested in using yoga and meditation, as well as art-making as healing modalities for the weary soul. I am empathic, energetic and client-centered, as well as sensitive to the needs of the client. I am a good listener and will encourage my clients to become the best version of themselves.

I offer a safe, respectful, nonjudgmental space where you can talk openly about what’s on your mind. I see therapy as a partnership, with your goals, values, and voice guiding our work. I tailor sessions to your needs using evidence-based tools, and I may suggest simple between-session practices to help you build insight, resilience, and lasting change.
