About Nicole
Nicole Henning is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania with ten years of clinical experience. She holds a Master of Education in Counseling and focuses on practical strategies clients can use day to day. Nicole centers her work on helping people change unhelpful thinking and build steady coping routines.
Nicole often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge negative thoughts and help people try new ways of responding. She combines that with client-centered listening so people feel heard while also learning new skills.
Background and approach
Her background includes work in corrections and with people who have substance use histories, which shapes a direct, pragmatic approach. Sessions typically focus on short-term goals such as improving mood, managing anger, or developing self-care habits. She also draws on attachment-based ideas when relation patterns are part of the concern.
Nicole pays attention to how life stress, grief, and trauma affect daily functioning and then breaks change into small, doable steps. Nicole has taught psychology and enjoys explaining how the brain relates to behavior. That interest shows up in sessions as simple, clear explanations about why emotions and habits feel so strong.
Clients who want straightforward skill-building, clear feedback, and steady encouragement tend to fit well with her style. Her work covers a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, coping with life changes, addiction histories, ADHD, and anger. Nicole aims to help people set realistic goals, practice coping skills, and make steady progress toward feeling more in control.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and expectations. It can help when recurring trust or closeness problems keep showing up in friendships or romantic partnerships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world experiments; it is useful for anxiety, low mood, anger, and changing daily habits.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Nicole will work collaboratively to pick methods that match a client's goals, concerns, and personal preferences. She often blends approaches so sessions feel practical and responsive rather than stuck to a single method.
Online therapy offers flexibility across several formats. Video calls let conversations feel close to in-person work. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter exchanges, step-by-step skill coaching, and ongoing reminders between sessions. These options make it easier to fit consistent therapy into a busy life while using the approaches described above.
