Nicole Williams is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Vermont, with two decades of professional experience supporting individuals, families, and adolescents. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Individual and Family Studies from the University of Delaware and earned a master’s degree in Counseling from Northern Vermont University in 2000, completing dual licensure in mental health counseling and school counseling.

Nicole’s practice is trauma-informed and draws on client-centered, solution-focused, and skill-based cognitive behavioral approaches, along with humanistic principles. She helps clients work through challenges such as compassion fatigue, relationship struggles, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and major life transitions by building on existing supports and practical skills. Her style emphasizes a kind, compassionate, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship in which clients are invited to explore identity, beliefs, and new perspectives.

Outside of her clinical work, Nicole values music, family time, and humor, which inform a warm and grounded approach to care. She aims to meet each person where they are and to collaborate on goals that increase resilience and well-being. Nicole welcomes questions from prospective clients and colleagues about her work and methods.
