Together with your counselor, your problem is clarified and your needs, wants and goals identified.
People seek counseling for a variety of reasons.
Counseling provides you with a safe space to discuss and process current problems, issues and situations, and learn skill sets to cope with challenging conditions and situations.
Whether you have a mental health condition, like depression or anxiety, or are going through a difficult time like a relationship break up, a supportive counselor helps you process your thoughts and feelings, gain clarity, understanding and insight, and empowers you to transform negative thinking patterns, unhealthy habits and behaviors as to regain a state of positive health and well-being.
I tailor my counseling approach to support each person’s unique needs and wants, and utilize conventional therapy methods as well as complementary and holistic methods in treatment and care.

“My life was in a downward spiral with the stress of a failed marriage and the thought of raising two small children alone taking a heavy toll on my physical and emotional health. It seemed like a struggle to make it through the day.…Dr. Nixon helped me start my healing process through her wisdom, knowledge and compassion. She helped me change my old paradigms of thinking and behaving, to step out of my comfort zone, and to start living the life I dreamed of.”
