“Nicole Rahul is knowledgeable, passionate and resourceful. She pays attention to her clients and cares about her work in this challenging field. She not only utilizes every minute, but she doesn’t waste a second jumping in from the very beginning. She is willing to work with any dilemma, and is not afraid to speak transparently for the betterment of her clients growth and welfare mentally. Often giving homework assignments that cause some deep diving, and thought provoking questions that result in well results and trigger healing she is highly recommended.
Humor is often incorporated if accepted but it is done in a professional and careful manner. I have not had such an enthusiastic and wonderful therapist who truly does their homework in over a decade. Coming across Nicole was divine intervention— she makes you think, feel and heal whether you realize it or not. If you are ready to do the inner work; this is person for you, because she comes prepared, eager and willing to work too. ”

Getting to know Nicole Rahul
Hello and thanks for stopping by! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey with extensive experience supporting individuals, families, and couples.

What should a new client know about working with you?
I strongly believe therapy should feel friendly rather than intimidating. In session you'll see that I often incorporate jokes, and a healthy dose of sarcasm not just to lighten the mood but to remind clients that joy and connection are possible even during difficult times.
By blending humor with compassion, I strive to make therapy a space for meaningful growth and a process clients can genuinely look forward to.

I’ve always had my reservations about therapy and the mental health field in general. When I first started going to therapy, I always felt it was a disingenuous thing to do since you’re paying someone to talk to you about your issues. When I first mentioned this to Miss Nicole, she immediately agreed with what I had said. This was surprising to me since other therapists I’ve had in the past have tried to change my mind about this or brush off my concerns.
Not only did she validate my initial reservations about therapy, she opened my eyes to the fact that even though I’m paying her to help me with these issues, that doesn’t mean the experience isn’t worth having. I really enjoy how whenever I talk about my issues with her, It doesn’t turn into a sort of pity party or crying session. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever laughed in therapy so much or at all! She respects my experiences by not looking down on me, but rather using whatever I’m feeling to push me towards healthier solutions.

I can’t recommend Nicole enough. After our initial consultation for the first time in a long time I was hopeful about restarting therapy. Ever single session since, I leave feeling better than when I came in.
Through therapy, Nicole has given me tools I use everyday that’s helped me change my behavior, my inner monologue, how I think about myself, how I react to challenging situations and much more.
For the first time in a long time I can truly say that I’m happy with who I am, my life, my relationships and how I’m continuing to better myself - I couldn’t have done it without Nicole.
If you’re thinking about starting therapy or looking for the right therapist who will actually make a positive impact on your life I’d book a session with Nicole.

Mrs. Nicole Rahul has been a critical resource in my treatment for the past 3 years. They have been the most difficult years of my life. I am 46 years old and after many years of challenges and different Mental Health Care providers, Nicole is the ONLY therapist that I have had to help me understand what Self Care truly is. To guide me through my own healing that I was giving her credit for. She almost magically says very little, yet it guides me to uncover and discover so much. I am grateful everyday for the progress that I have made with Mrs. Rahul's guidance. She is gifted with something rare that came right on time for me.
Thriving,
Ty
