Getting to know Nicole Hawkins

Hi there, I'm Nicole! Congratulations on taking a step towards wellness. As a therapist, I am passionate about helping individuals navigate challenges and rediscover their worth. Therapy is a supportive space, much like visiting a doctor for physical health. I approach each person non-judgmentally, recognizing the complexities of human nature. My primary specialties include trauma, sex therapy, anxiety, depression, crisis, mood disorders, personality disorders, women's issues, first responders, professionals, peri/post-natal, and problematic sexual concerns/behaviors. I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's in Social Work from the University of Minnesota Duluth, which laid a strong foundation for my clinical practice. My approach integrates several therapeutic modalities, including polyvagal theory, cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, person-centered counseling, positive psychology, narrative therapy, solution-focused techniques, and a trauma-informed perspective. I also provide Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), which facilitates reprogramming of the parasympathetic nervous system to promote optimal functioning. My perspective is holistic, emphasizing wellness and self-care. I adopt a comprehensive approach, focusing on clients facing sexual dysfunctions, problematic sexual behaviors, and sexual trauma. My practice extends to individuals with ADHD, trauma, anxiety, and depression. I also support professionals, first responders, and women dealing with motherhood issues and peri/postnatal stages. I am thorough, grounded in theory, and adept at clear explanations, while incorporating humor. I foster an environment of safety and tranquility, encouraging activation of the ventral vagal state within the parasympathetic nervous system.
