01About Nicole
Nicole Shaddix-Olsen uses an attachment-informed, client-centered approach to help people find clearer ways forward. She brings nine years of professional experience and holds LCPC and LPC credentials. Nicole focuses on practical steps that reduce stress and ease anxiety.
She keeps sessions direct and compassionate so people can talk without judgment. Nicole helps people work through relationship struggles and family conflict with steady support. She also addresses trauma and abuse, grief, and anger so clients can rebuild daily routines and reconnect with what matters.
Background and approach
Parenting strain, career challenges, and questions about identity are also common topics she takes on in sessions. Her work often combines mindful awareness with skills-focused strategies from dialectical behavior therapy to manage intense emotions. When trauma is present, she may incorporate EMDR-informed techniques alongside somatic awareness to reduce overwhelming reactions.
The emphasis is always on what the person needs now and next, not on labels. Nicole aims for a straightforward, nonjudgmental tone in conversations. Sessions are a place to talk about hard things and try new ways of coping.
She collaborates with each person to set goals and practice useful skills between meetings. Located in Florida and licensed as KS LCPC and MO LPC, Nicole also works with international clients. Sessions can be arranged by following the platform's matching and scheduling steps to connect with her.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches through online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships. Online sessions help people notice patterns in close ties and practice new ways of relating that feel safer and more connected. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and experiences. The therapist listens without directing the outcome and supports people as they find their own solutions and clarify values.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to figure out what methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean combining mindful skills, DBT strategies, or EMDR-informed methods over time, and adjusting the plan as progress and challenges emerge.
Online formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video is useful for full conversations and skill teaching, phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and more flexible, live chat supports quick check-ins, and text messaging lets people reflect between appointments. These options aim to increase access and make it simpler to keep up with regular sessions.
