Nicole Baer is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who brings a thoughtful, collaborative, and compassionate approach to her work with adult clients. With a Master’s degree from La Salle University and five years of clinical experience, Nicole specializes in helping individuals navigate anxiety, self-esteem issues, depression management, and the impact of family and attachment ruptures. Nicole’s therapeutic style is grounded in collaboration—she believes that healing is best achieved through a trusting relationship where clients feel empowered to explore and grow at their own pace. Drawing from systemic/contextual therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based practices, Nicole tailors her approach based on each person’s needs and goals. Whether someone is seeking support for managing symptoms, exploring patterns, or improving interpersonal relationships, Nicole works with clients to uncover the root causes and develop effective strategies for lasting change. Her sessions may incorporate mindfulness, meditation, or creative expression, depending on what resonates most with each individual. Nicole also utilizes tools such as genograms (family trees) when appropriate to help clients better understand how family dynamics and relational histories influence current patterns and emotional experiences. Nicole is passionate about helping adults build self-compassion, improve interpersonal skills, and move through anxiety with greater awareness and strength. She is trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and committed to providing a culturally competent, safe space for every client. Outside of therapy, Nicole enjoys gardening, hiking, and sewing—creative and grounding practices that bring her joy and balance.
