With the goal of Stability and Security in mind.
Welcome to Liz Nickole Therapy, your trusted source for compassionate mental health support in Santa Cruz, CA, serving clients across California. My goal, as your therapist, is to create a safe space for you to work on the deep wounds and challenging experiences that have led to hurt and trauma. Without feeling like you have the skills or resources to feel stability in the present moment, it is hard to heal from the past. I will work with you and/or your family to learn the skills necessary to do the deeper work. I have tons of experience working with teens and their families as they have navigated challenges such as trauma, crisis stabilization, family conflict, high risk behaviors, school issues, and more.

With Over 15 Years
Experience
I'm here to meet you where you are in your therapeutic journey. This has often been helpful in working with people who have had negative experiences in therapy before, because I am not here to push my agenda - I am here to help you get to where you want to be! Therapy with me is flexible, but I can also be direct and challenging when it is appropriate.
