Bio:

Hi, I’m Nichole and I am very excited to be joining the School Based
Mental Health Program as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker-In Training.

I have recent training in a wide array of therapeutic approaches
including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered
Therapy, Family Systems Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. I love
learning and I strive to continue to increase my knowledge and
therapeutic skills so I can always offer the very best to each person I
work with.

For 11 years I worked directly with children and families with the goals
of strengthening relationships, teaching healthy coping skills,
improving effective communication and addressing trauma. I am passionate
about sincerely engaging with the individuals and families I work with
and I recognize the importance of taking the time to learn which
approach works best for each individual and each situation.

Additionally, I have focused my work on crisis intervention, crisis
response and crisis assessment for the past 3 years.  This experience
allows me to help individuals find and maintain balance in their lives
while remaining safe. I strive to teach skills that will reduce the
intensity of negative emotions and therefore, maintain day-to-day
functioning.

I look forward to working with you!

TESTIMONIALS

“The group was very good, and it calmed me down a lot. When you feeling stressed this class is a time to just relax and think about everything and it soothes your mind.”   “I liked that every time I needed to relax or talk about something I would not get judged that place was a free spot.”   “Being in the relax group really helped me become calm, and know what to do in times when I’m overwhelmed. The Relax Group also helped me focus on everyday tasks, and the group gave some incredibly good advice :)”
Student feedback about a Relax Group
School-based mental health services allow a child to receive much needed services regularly without the inconvenience of scheduling around after school activities or parents having to take time off work.

“I liked how they gave me strategies and not just one but many so I could choose what I liked and didn’t like!”
CFAUSD Student
As a therapist, having the School Based Mental Health available for students is very important in many aspects. School is an area where children spend a great amount of their time and the schools are able to work with the therapists to help in any areas that they may be struggling in.  The schools have all been very open with working with me as a therapist and the children are able to still get services that are needed for either home or school issues without having to miss more time at school since the therapy is able to be done right at the school settings.  Being able to provide this service for families is a great asset for everyone involved.
School Based Mental Health Therapist
You made this process super easy and helped me every step of the way to ensure that my student is set up for success. In following up with me and making sure we were taken care of shows that you care about the students and their wellbeing. Thank you so much for making this as easy as it was, I truly appreciate everything!
CFAUSD Parent
As a parent having the School Based Mental Health available has been very helpful with my child.  The process has gone smoothly from the initial contact to being able to choose a therapist that may work best with my child to the therapist working directly with my child.  This is also helpful that they are able to come directly to my child at the school so that they are missing less school and I as a parent need to miss less work as well.  Overall the whole experience has been a positive one for both myself and my child.
