Nigel Cook
I work with persons of all genders and marginalized identities with my specialty area being helping survivors of sexual and relationship violence address posttraumatic stress symptoms. In addition to that work, I also help many clients address their depression, anxiety, life stressors, childhood trauma, sexual health, and relationship/family dynamics. Since my work primarily addresses trauma and sexual topics, I am very intentional about cultivating an LGBTQ+ affirming and inclusive space. Please know that whatever your identity or history is, you are welcomed and celebrated at my practice.
My goal is to help clients discover clarity within chaos. Life is stressful and it can be helpful to have a space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and next steps without fear of judgement. My work with clients is skills-based and solution-focused, with clients using our time together to safely explore what they would like to do and who they want to be.
I take a conversational approach to therapy and try to create a non-judgmental space where you can safely learn new coping strategies, process stressful life experiences, and explore aspects of your identity and values. If you are curious if my therapeutic style would be a good fit for you, please reach out for a free consultation phone call.
