After going through counseling previously I was pretty unsure if I wanted to try again. I knew it was something that I really needed to do but had yet found a method that actually worked for me. I’ve struggled with lots of anxiety especially now with Covid going around. I truly believe that my sessions with Nicole have saved my life and my health! The best part was I didn’t even have to talk much and answer all the questions that never really helped before! We did Progressive Counting and it worked!!! I finally feel like I’m ready to move on and live a life that anxiety doesn’t control me it’s just something that is there and as I feel happier it’s becoming less and less.

Nicole has studied and trained to help people deal with traumatic events – old and new experiences. She knows the latest information, data, and techniques. But, Nicole is more than book smart, she is also people smart. She uses her knowledge, skills, and God-given talents in a way that helps people wherever they are on their path of discovery, learning, and healing. Nicole helps people dig out of the deepest holes, or just regain their footing, whichever the situation and person requires. Nicole is very professional and keeps strict confidences. Her demeanor and office are comfortable and safe. I highly recommend her and am very appreciative of what she helped me to process and learn so that I can live a more abundant and happy life. Thank you, Nicole. Jane Payne

I can’t recommend Nicole enough- she’s helped me deal with the root cause of my trauma that I’ve had locked up inside of me for over 20 years and had no idea. EMDR therapy has been such an amazing and challenging experience for me. I knew I was able to fully trust Nicole when she told me “I’m not here for you to vent, that’s what your best friend is for. I’m here to help heal your brain, and to help you find yourself again.” 😭 she’s truly healed me in a way I couldn’t do for myself. Never once did she make me feel inferior or not heard. She validated and validated all the feelings. She creates a safe space where you can truly be yourself. She has helped me realize that I am worth fighting for and always have been. I thought it would take years and years to do what she’s done in less than 2 months. ❤️ Thank you for all you’ve done for so many and continue to do, Nicole!

Nicole is fantastic. I had been trying, ineffectively, to copenon my own with PTSD related to an abusive relationship. The EMDR therapy helped me go through and process my experience. I felt comfortable with Nicole and relaxed in her office. I will be going back to her in the future to work through lingering issues. I could not have asked for a better experience.

Nicole absolutely turned my life around. Within a 4 month period I lost my marriage of 12 years, my home, my job, my mother passed away and I caught covid. Basically I was mess. I went to Nicole to help me deal with the divorce and ended up learning the root causes of why I seemed to keep ending up in the same situation time after time. With her help I was able to learn about myself, forgive myself and believe in myself in a way I never thought possible. When I walked into her office I thought I'd never be happy again and here I am on the other side, happier than ever, writing this review to say thank you, Nicole, for helping me find my way back to happiness ❤

Kind, compassionate, supportive - everything you could want in a therapist. She can make you laugh when you need it most, and opens your mind to new, empowering ways of thinking. I’ve never made it past two appointments with counseling until I met Nicole. If you’ve been debating seeking out help, you can call her with confidence; her office is a safe space

She really does just get it. This was my first ever experience with therapy and she made me feel safe, comfortable, and like I could anything. She’s a lovely human being, full of compassion, and I’m very glad that she exists in this world!

Nicole does an excellent job helping clients, both adults and children, work through trauma. One of the tools that she uses is EDMR which helps your brain process the memories of traumatic experiences. Using EDMR, my brain processed years of trauma in a fast and effective manner! I feel lighter (as if a burden has been lifted), happier, and healthier. I’m so thankful for Nicole and how she has changed the outlook and outcome of my life!

Nicole has changed my life! She's an amazing counselor. She's trained in trauma therapy and is a master at it. She's so patient and kind. If I could give her more stars I would. I highly recommend her.

Nicole's practice is amazing, life-afffirming, and life-changing. No kidding. She is kind and encouraging. And she employs techniques that actually allow your brain to think differently about the baggage you've been carrying around for years and shuck it off. Immediately. Experiences and feelings I have carried around my whole life that have inaccurately "told" me about myself are gone, and I'm free to be me and make my own choices about how I live. I highly recommend anyone sit with her and let her techniques and your brain work together for your good and growth.

Nicole is very welcoming and has a smile that can put any anxious mind at ease. I have seen countless professionals but in the small amount of time I’ve been working with Nicole, I have accomplished mountain ranges rather than the small bunny hills in the past. Nicole has a killer sense of humor that can lighten any mood and is a great cheerleader on your journey toward growth and vulnerability. I was truly blessed when Nicole came into my life.

Client

Nicole really “gets it” when it comes to trauma healing. She’s compassionate and real. She makes connections that help people feel better. Her track record of success is impressive.

Suzi Fode
Director of New Hope

I had been through some traumatic events. I’m a high functioning person, but I had developed some coping mechanisms that were holding me back from enjoying some things in my life. She suggested I schedule a few appointments for myself. I don’t regret it at all. I really like her approach. She was direct and helped me be able to rise to the challenge of my trials. I’m so grateful that Nicole came into our lives.

Client

I have had the pleasure of knowing Nicole professionally for several years. Nicole is a gifted clinician who is able to quickly build rapport with children and adults.

Nicole is skilled at actively listening to others and thoughtfully assists clients while respecting the client’s needs and wishes. One of Nicole’s greatest assets is the care she feels for clients and friends.

Nicole first began seeing my son and while the circumstances for finding her were quite unusual, I’m so glad we found her. He had been to several therapists and always struggled developing any kind of trust with them. He took to her pretty quickly. I always wished others could see the value in my son that I could see.  She gave him that. She became a strong advocate for him. He and I could tell that she really cared about him and his progress. She earned my full trust in dealing with my son in any situation.

Parent

I had been in therapy off and on for several years and it wasn’t until I met Nicole that I was truly able to break free from my past. She walked with me through the deep hurt and utilized EMDR to help me release what had been holding me back. I am forever grateful for her services and would highly recommend her.

Client

Nicole has a great passion for her work and it shows. She is always looking out for everyone and attempts to make connections with them while she works. Her positive attitude is contagious and she is always engaged while speaking to people.

Colleague

I’ve been extremely fortunate to know Nicole Prentice both as a colleague, collaborative stake holder and confidant. Over the last few years, I have watched as Nicole’s role in the care and treatment of some of our most vulnerable community members progressed. I’ve navigated complex criminal investigations with Nicole assisting in interviews and following through with trauma centered treatment for the victims and families. This approach and the way delivered by Nicole and the whole Kid’s Hope team, has dramatically improved our regions ability to assist our victims.

Nicole is a strong advocate for improvement in the way our Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) seeks to resolve complex cases. Nicole’s efforts have improved our team and the overall environment in region. Nicole has proven to be focused on her professional growth and education with the ultimate goal to provide the very best service to victims and anyone who seeks her counsel.
