Getting to know Nicole Harkins

Seeking therapy can feel overwhelming, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who is passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges while creating meaningful, lasting change. My approach to therapy is warm, compassionate, and down-to-earth, and I strive to create a space that feels supportive, collaborative, and authentic. I earned my MSW from Boston College in 2020 and bring a modern, practical perspective to my work. My clinical experience across a range of mental health settings has deepened my appreciation for resilience and the importance of feeling genuinely supported during difficult times. I understand that every person’s experiences and needs are unique, and I aim to tailor therapy in a way that feels both approachable and effective. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, burnout, life transitions, or simply looking for a space to better understand yourself, my goal is to help you feel heard, grounded, and empowered as we work together toward meaningful growth.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
