It is never too late to turn on the light. Your ability to break an unhealthy habit or turn off an old tape doesn’t depend on how long it has been running; a shift in perspective doesn’t depend on how long you’ve held on to the old view. When you flip the switch in the attic, it doesn’t matter whether it’s been dark for ten years or ten decades. The light still illuminates the room and banishes the murkiness, letting you see the things you couldn’t see before. It’s never too late to take a moment to look.
SHARON SALZBERG
Welcome - I’m Nicole Barab, LCSW.
I approach the therapeutic process with warmth, curiosity, compassion, acceptance and incredible respect for the individuals who have courageously decided to take steps towards insight and healing. I use a combination of mind-body approaches, in the service of helping individuals to better integrate neurobiological and physiological information so that you can experience lasting changes. Depending on the presenting issue, talk therapy alone is not always effective, and sometimes for deep and lasting change to occur, we need to incorporate modalities that focus on shifting the ways our brains and nervous systems respond to information. These body centered modalities, like EMDR and SE are holistic approaches that use the connection between the mind and body to help you develop alternative ways of thinking, feeling and being your body.
Pairing your expertise with my intensive training and experience in both psychodynamic and evidence-based therapeutic approaches, we will work together to develop and implement a plan that suits you and helps you reach your goals.
multi-faceted approach
I’m able to offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Trauma Resiliency Model Therapy & Sex Therapy.
It’s my goal to create a safe environment in which you can work towards healing and expansion with the guidance of several therapeutic techniques.
