Getting to know Nicole Ramirez

I have been a licensed clinical social worker in California and New Mexico since 2018. I graduated from San José State University with my Master’s in Social Work. I am a California native and identify as a queer Latina woman. I am certified in DBT, TF-CBT, and CBT. I have experience working in medical and psychiatric hospitals, community centers, and nonprofit/grassroots organizations. I tend to use a more solution-focused approach, feminist theory therapy, and storytelling/narrative therapy to help clients see that the session is their time to tell their story. I prefer to work with young adults ages 16-25 and adults ages 25-50. My life philosophy is all about peace, love, and happiness. I feel that I bring those characteristics to the table when I work with anyone. A key component within the therapeutic relationship is for the client and me to be open-minded, honest, and nonjudgmental. My insight into life and hard times has helped me be a better mental health professional. The most interesting and profound lesson I have learned as a social worker is not being afraid to speak up and help those who need to hear their voices. I want to give everyone that platform to empower them to be confident and comfortable with asking for what they need and want.

Because she’s very empathetic and wants the best for her patients
She’s very professional and detailed with her follow up questions.
Nicole is very easy to talk to and takes the tension out of difficult conversations with ease. I have appreciated her support and have made tangible growth towards my goals.
i went through a mental breakdown some years ago and was directed this service by my insurance. i had initially chosen someone else who ended up already having a full schedule, so i read nicole's profile. what drew me to nicole at the time was that she was queer-friendly, and i've been seeing her ever since. she has a depth of compassion that i desperately needed, a fantastic sense of humor that keeps me engaged, and is a font of knowledge and experience who i deeply appreciate.
She is caring and genuine. She CARES!!
Nicole is so incredible, she communicates really well and is so flexible. When I first started with her I was a little all over the place; Nicole took everything in stride and continues to be a wonderful, steady presence. She has more than earned my confidence and trust and I appreciate her so so much.
