Getting to know Adam Nickell

I specialize in helping individuals heal from trauma's impact and symptoms. I believe everyone can progress toward their goals with the right support and find joy in helping others connect with and rediscover their inner strength. My approach I am passionate about helping people overcome and find freedom and relief from the symptoms of trauma. I find the two styles of trauma treatment are the most effective and work the most efficiently for most people are Internal Family Systems (IFS) which focuses on the internal world of emotions (similarly to the movie "Inside Out") and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) which is designed to remove triggers and involuntary reactions that are the common symptom of trauma. Both help clients overcome challenges and achieve goals by processing information that is stored unprocessed in the brain, body, and nervous system. I completed EMDR basic training in 2015, became certified in 2022, and Consultant the same year. I am IFS-informed and currently completing IFS Level 1 training. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Walla Walla University and a BA in Social Work from Idaho State University, and so my lens will often focus on internal and external systems. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) as a lens to understand challenges and barriers to health holistically, and both IFS and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as ways to eliminate reactions and triggers and to process challenges to health and healing. I believe focusing on the goals is as important as focusing on the challenges in psychotherapy. I love to help people heal from traumatic experiences and find the freedom to put the past in the past. My focus Have you been struggling with symptoms of trauma? Or symptoms you don't understand? Has it been difficult to identify triggers or understand reactions? Do you often feel like you are stuck and don't know what to do differently?
