Getting to know Nicole Obih
I provide therapy for adults and young adults seeking support with anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and relationship challenges. My work centers on helping clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped with practical strategies to manage daily stressors and long-term concerns.
I specialize in working with BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities, creating a safe and affirming space that acknowledges how culture, identity, and lived experiences impact mental health. My approach is collaborative, drawing from CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed practices to ensure sessions are tailored to your unique needs.
Clients often describe my style as warm, attentive, and action-focused. My goal is to help you gain clarity, build coping skills, and move toward meaningful change in your life.
What should a new client know about working with you?
When we work together, you can expect a space that is judgment-free, supportive, and focused on your goals. I will listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and guide you with tools and strategies you can apply outside of therapy.
I believe therapy should feel like a partnership — I bring expertise in mental health, and you bring expertise in your own life. Together, we’ll create a plan that helps you manage challenges while building confidence and resilience.
You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting — just showing up is enough. My role is to meet you where you are and walk alongside you at your pace.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My process is collaborative and tailored to your needs. In our first sessions, we’ll focus on understanding your goals, concerns, and history so I can get a clear picture of what you’re experiencing. From there, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan that highlights both short-term coping tools and long-term growth strategies.
I draw from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and trauma-informed care, while making sure sessions remain flexible to what’s most important for you each week.
Clients can expect a balance of support and actionable guidance — I’ll listen deeply, but I’ll also provide skills, tools, and reflection exercises you can carry into daily life. Over time, we’ll track your progress together, adjusting the process to make sure therapy continues to feel meaningful and effective.
