About Nicole

Nicole Wilbur is a licensed Master Social Worker who practices in Michigan and brings 19 years of experience in hospital, hospice, homecare, brain injury, and school settings. She works with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, ADHD, autism, and a range of life stressors. Her manner is warm and interactive and she focuses on building a practical plan that fits each person.

Nicole blends familiar techniques like mindfulness and cognitive behavioral strategies with person-centered listening. She uses mind-body tools and motivational conversations to help people manage symptoms and regain control. Sessions emphasize identifying strengths and turning those strengths into everyday skills.

Her work often addresses how mental health and physical injury affect communication and relationships. When helpful, Nicole concentrates on concrete skills for family interactions, parenting strain, and improving intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people coping with grief, chronic illness, or end-of-life stress.

Nicole has experience leading groups and providing workshops for community members and professionals. That background informs a practical style oriented toward real-world improvements. She aims to make therapy actionable rather than abstract.

People who do best with her approach tend to want hands-on tools, clear steps, and a supportive listener. She collaborates with each person to set goals and track progress over time. Nicole invites those ready to try small changes to reach out and begin the matching process.

How her approach translates to online work

Nicole uses client-centered therapy that begins with listening to what matters most to you. This approach focuses on your priorities and builds a plan that fits your goals and personality. It helps when you want a supportive space to sort out feelings and values.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many everyday struggles because it gives clear steps to practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Nicole will talk with you about what feels most helpful and adjust methods as you move forward. That collaborative process aims to match tools to your needs and comfort level rather than forcing a single method.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the biography does not list specific online formats. Online work can make it easier to fit regular meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that remote sessions help them try new skills in their day-to-day setting while still having a therapist to guide practice and problem-solve.
