"All emotions are healthy, because emotions are what unite the mind and the body. Anger, fear, and sadness, the so-called negative emotions, are as healthy as peace, courage, and joy... 

All honest emotions are positive emotions." 
~Candace Pert, Molecules of Emotion

Let's talk, in a comfortable place, about how you can get better, quality connection in your relationship.  In individual or couples therapy, we look at what you are hoping to get from your relationship, and, most importantly, how to get it.  Counseling can be a safe place to look inside yourself, see where you may be getting stuck, decide who you want to be, and be encouraged to find ways to be just that.   I help you come to truly enjoy each other more, and fight less.  Couples often come to see me when they are at a crossroads, not wanting to split, and also knowing they need more than what they are currently getting from their relationship.  Unfortunately, people often wait far too long to seek help.  Don’t put yourself through the pain of waiting until it's too late.  Let's see what we can figure out together.


Nicole Van Ness, MA, conducts individual, couple, group, and family therapy.  Her primary practice is unique blend of approaches that works with your relationship history, emotional patterns, current difficulties, and the latest findings in neuroscience and the science of intimate relationships.  This approach helps you to be the best "you" possible in your relationships, and to get the kind of responses from your partner you have been hoping and searching for.  Nicole believes in supported growth, with warm and caring encouragement and gentle challenges along the way.  




Nicole Van Ness is a Marriage and Family Therapist Registered Intern (IMF#62392). 
She is under the supervision of Aimee Zakrewski-Clark, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Lic. # MFC43736.


What exactly does "intern" mean?  It means that I am a pre-licensed therapist, a registered intern, under the supervision of a licensed therapist.  Every therapist must go through a process: earn a Master's degree and a total of 3,000 hours supervised experience before qualifying to test for licensure. While you have me as a therapist, I will be consulting with my supervisors to ensure that you receive the best therapy possible at an affordable rate.
