I’m here to help you know all that is possible for you and clear blocks of self-doubt, fear, shame, grief and other very human emotions and experiences in your way of a nourishing, self-loving and joyful life. My approach is collaborative, intuitive and full of heart and is rooted in my own lived experience of healing, learning and emerging. I weave together a range of therapeutic healing modalities including IFS, Hakomi and other somatic, nature-based and anti-oppressive practices. I would love to support you on your healing journey!

I offer a warm, supportive space to slow down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and reconnect with yourself. Together, we’ll explore what may be keeping you feeling stuck and build tools to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected. I use approaches including EMDR, IFS, and ACT, tailoring therapy to your needs and where you are in your journey.

I have had the honor to work in the field of mental health for the past 15 years and journey alongside amazing people who were able to discover the strength, grace, and wisdom waiting for them. While I have experience providing several treatment modalities, I specialize in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Narrative Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I have also been extensively trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). Additionally, for the past eight years, I have taught courses on human behavior and additional topics at SUNY Brockport and Nazareth College allowing me to stay current on mental health research and treatments. My experience has shown me that everyone has the capacity for growth, we sometimes just need a space to discover and map out the life that we want. I would be honored to provide that space and help you bring more authenticity into your life.

I love supporting college students and have been doing so for the past 15 years. I spent much of that time providing therapy in New York City, before returning to my home town of Fairfield, CT to continue my practice. In addition to in person appointments, I continue to provide telehealth sessions for any students located in CT or NY. I also have experience with this age group in schools, medical and psychiatric hospital settings and in the classroom while teaching at the Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College. I truly enjoy working with my clients and draw upon my own experience and their inherent strengths to achieve change in a welcoming and nonjudgmental environment. ​

Hello! My name is Nicole Wong (she/her) and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York’s Hudson Valley. I specialize in helping adults heal from trauma, overcome anxiety, and relinquish their self-doubt. Your voice deserves to be heard and listened to. I would so appreciate the opportunity to engage in this therapeutic process with you. In my work, I provide trauma-informed, strengths-based, and person-centered therapy to my clients, while integrating an empathic, intersectional, and holistic approach. My practice is grounded in allowing my clients to explore all aspects of their identities while working through their life experiences. It is important to me that you are in control of your therapeutic process and that our work together is collaborative in its approach and catered to meet your needs and goals. Prior to my transition to being a therapist, I worked for nine years in trauma and anti-violence, university administration, and nonprofit management. For most of my professional career, I have helped individuals heal from trauma and loss and advocated for survivors in their communities. My foundations in trauma-informed approaches and advocacy remain a strong tenet of my work with clients today. I earned my Masters of Science degree in Social Work at Columbia University in Advanced Clinical Practice with a focus on Health, Mental Health, and Disabilities. Previously, I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and English from Vassar College.

I enjoy helping to support people as they navigate through the many different waves of life. I help to create a warm, non judgmental, and supportive environment where clients are free to talk about their stories. I draw from a number of different treatment modalities, but most importantly, meet the client where they are at. While each individual's experience is unique, I regularly work with clients around topics related to anxiety, depression, obsessive thoughts, relationship concerns, sexuality, ADHD, life's transitions, familial conflict and many more. In this busy world, it can be difficult to make time to focus on your needs. Therapy provides a space to do so and share your story in a safe and non judgmental environment. Sessions are a time to practice self care, utilize your strengths, and develop tools that help you gain a better understanding of you. I would love to have the chance to work with you and hear your story. Currently, sessions are teletherapy based allowing you more flexibility to be in a familiar setting and join from any mobile or desktop device. I would love to help you with the process of learning more about you and develop the tools to navigate the many waves of life.

Are you experiencing challenges related to anxiety, depression, trauma or substance use? Feeling stuck? I’m here to support you in moving forward in your healing and to help life feel more manageable. With an individualized approach, we’ll work together to explore the reasons you reached out for therapy. Fostering a therapeutic relationship involves building trust as we navigate through distressing emotions, situations, and overcoming barriers. Oftentimes, therapy decreases feelings of aloneness and offers space for learning and practicing new ways of coping.

I have been repeatedly impressed and moved by the process and experience that is psychotherapy. With each new person that I meet, I endeavor to foster a relationship through which healing, self-awareness, and personal growth can take place. I aim to help people identify their own emotional truths and live a more fulfilling life. If you are unhappy with the direction your life is going, dissatisfied with the quality of your relationships, or experiencing distressing symptoms that make it difficult to get through your days, please call for an initial consultation. I offer individual psychotherapy, group psychotherapy, and couples counseling, as well as consultation services for mental health professionals. My practice focuses on the treatment of depression and anxiety, grief and loss, adjustment to chronic illness, stress management, and interpersonal difficulties. My approach is integrative and collaborative, based on trust, respect, and compassion. I am a Certified Group Psychotherapist (International Board for Certification of Group Psychotherapists) and lead therapy groups that focus on the improvement of interpersonal functioning and the enhancement of an individual's ability to develop healthy, satisfying and emotionally close relationships.

My approach is non-judgemental, client centered, and trauma informed. Together we can work through whatever challenges you are facing to meet goals that have seemed difficult to attain. My intention is to pave the way toward healing, acceptance of your full authentic self, and long-term growth. Drawing on knowledge from queer, and critical race theory, we will work collaboratively to help you navigate systemic issues and its impact on your intersecting identities.

Perhaps you’ve noticed feeling more anxious or depressed lately, but aren’t sure why, or what you can do to feel like yourself again. Perhaps you’re struggling with relationship tensions, feeling stagnant in studies or find yourself just more generally in a rut. You may be feeling well overall but want to get a grasp on certain issues in your life. Now might be the right time to break free of those patterns and explore other ways of thinking, feeling and being in the world. I offer a non-judgmental space to learn more about yourself, what you want, and how to get there. My practice is depth-oriented; we work collaboratively to get to the root of your problems so you can move forward both with my help and on your own. We learn together to listen better to you so that you can come into a more solid and vital sense of yourself.

I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with fear of abandonment, feelings of instability in relationships, and those experiencing intense emotional turbulence. Whether you feel overwhelmed by the intensity of your emotions or find yourself caught in unhealthy relationship patterns, my approach is grounded in empathy, support, and understanding. I help clients navigate these challenges by creating a safe, non-judgmental space where we can explore the roots of your concerns and develop healthier coping strategies. With a background shaped by working around the world, I bring a unique global perspective to my work. Many of my clients come to me feeling alone, misunderstood, or as though their emotional experiences are difficult to express or process. If this resonates with you, know that you're not alone. Together, we can explore these feelings, understand their deeper causes, and work toward emotional clarity and healing.

Sometimes in life we find ourselves feeling lost or alone on our journey. We each need to know that someone will be there to help us find our way. My goal is to help you figure out what you want from life and to provide a safe space that will enable you to work towards your goals, whatever they may be. I became a mental health counselor because I believe everyone has the capacity to grow and become more fully the person they were meant to be. My passion is walking that journey with others, being a listening and supportive presence as you strive to do that. I look forward to sharing that journey of discovery with you during our time together. My hours are normally Monday through Thursday from 10 am to 5 pm, but I am open to working with you to find a time that works best for you.
