Dr. Nicole Gurash

My therapy approach has been described over the years as compassionate, curious, kind, genuine, patient, and safe. All of us tend to acquire unhelpful patterns in how we think, feel, and act. This is true for all ages and stages in life and you are not alone. Often these unhelpful patterns develop instinctively as we try to make sense of our experiences and as we seek safety during times of stress, imbalance, chaos, and disconnect. The goal of therapy is not to fix you, but rather to provide a safe space for you to explore these unhelpful coping skills while supporting you to make meaningful shifts to manage your own internal and external experiences. 

Essentially, my work centers on helping individuals, couples, and families settle into life’s stuck moments, choosing a direction while learning new skills, and then taking action towards living a more meaningful life they value. My intention is to validate and normalize your neurodiverse experiences in a world that, more often than not, doesn’t truly get it. In our work together, we will explore how you can better attune to your own needs and relationships. We will get curious about how you can live more authentically without masking, while regulating your nervous system, and cultivating emotional safety within yourself and with your loved ones. Your story matters here, and it would be my privilege to hold space for it. My promise to you is to show up fully in our sessions together while honoring your own individual needs.
