About Nicole
Nicole Shaddix-Olsen uses an approachable, attachment-informed style to help people manage stress, anxiety, and relationship pain. She is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - LCPC with nine years of experience and works with individuals facing grief, trauma, parenting strain, and life transitions. She favors short, direct conversations that help people name what they are feeling.
Sessions focus on understanding patterns in relationships and building practical skills to cope with strong emotions.
Background and approach
Nicole aims to make therapy feel straightforward and steady rather than overwhelming. Nicole draws on client-centered methods to keep sessions focused on each person's goals. Mindfulness and DBT-informed skills are introduced when helpful to manage anxiety, anger, or mood swings.
For people processing traumatic memories, she also uses gentle somatic and EMDR-informed techniques as part of a paced plan. Her work often addresses identity and LGBT concerns, communication problems, and issues connected to family of origin or blended families. Nicole helps clients facing career stress, ADHD challenges, chronic illness, or caregiving burdens to find clearer priorities and coping steps.
Therapy begins with listening and a short plan tailored to what matters most to the person in front of her. Nicole supports people who want practical changes, clearer relationships, and more reliable emotional balance. She practices in Florida and offers sessions in English, including with some international clients.

Online support
How attachment and skills work online
Nicole uses attachment-informed and client-centered approaches to help people feel understood and to strengthen relationships. Attachment-based work focuses on how past connection patterns shape current relationships and helps people try new ways of relating. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and following the person's own goals so sessions stay practical and relevant.She also brings Dialectical Behavior Therapy - DBT - skills into online sessions when managing intense emotions, anxiety, or mood swings. DBT skills teach concrete strategies for calming the body, tolerating distress, and improving communication, which can be practiced between sessions and reviewed together.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That plan can change over time as progress and new concerns appear.
Online therapy offers flexibility by using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone works well when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins, live chat can help during busy days, and messaging supports shorter reflections between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
