01About Nichole
Dr. Nichole Nava is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She writes in clear, direct language and aims to make therapy feel approachable.
Parents and adults often come to her for support with grief, parenting strain, self-esteem, and life transitions. With 15 years of counseling experience, she draws on straightforward methods to address trauma, abuse, and intimacy-related difficulties. Her work also covers issues linked to adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, blended family challenges, and caregiver stress.
Background and approach
She pays attention to how past experiences like abandonment and attachment wounds shape present relationships. Her approach centers on the client. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters most to each person.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Solution-Focused Therapy guides short-term goal setting and practical steps when immediate change is needed. Nava practices in Texas and brings a background in social services and education to her work.
She can support clients facing communication problems, codependency, body image issues, and compassion fatigue. She also works with people navigating gender dysphoria and LGBT-related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered through multiple online formats.
Therapy is framed as collaborative, with clear goals and concrete strategies to use between sessions. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and reflecting what matters to the client; it helps people feel heard and clarify their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people test new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety or depression. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, practical steps and short-term goals to create visible change in daily life.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adapt methods accordingly. That means sessions might blend listening-focused work, cognitive tools, and quick problem-solving depending on what the client needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coping support, or clients who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, and busy days.
