Nicole Clinkscale, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, P.L.L.C

Healing starts with awareness. As a therapist with Mindfulness Growth Therapy, I guide clients in becoming more present, grounded, and in control of their emotional experiences. If youre struggling with anxiety, low mood, or feeling disconnected, well work together to gently explore whats beneath the surface while building skills that support balance, clarity, and self-compassion. My approach is warm, collaborative, and empowering. I use trauma-informed CBT and mindfulness-based strategies to help clients feel more grounded, regulate emotions, and build healthier coping skills without judgment or pressure. I work especially well with high-functioning adults who feel anxious, burned out, or emotionally stuck, and I prioritize emotional safety, pacing, and real-life application of skills. Therapy with me is a space where you dont have to have it all together. We move at your pace and focus on practical tools you can actually use in daily life. Many of my clients appear high functioning but often feel overwhelmed and guilty about prioritizing their own needs. They believe they must manage everything alone, leading to emotional fatigue from over-giving. They also struggle with self-criticism and perfectionism, feel disconnected, and are unsure how to slow down. In therapy, we develop stress-management and emotional-regulation skills to promote calmness and a sense of groundedness. I address the effects of stress and trauma on the nervous system, emphasize setting healthy boundaries, and work on reconnecting with personal needs and values while building sustainable coping strategies for daily life. If you are ready to feel like yourself again, I would be honored to accompany you on that journey. Schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation today.
