Nicole Persall

Nicole Persall is a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors and holds a master's degree in Counselling Psychology. Nicole provides online counselling to individuals seeking support for anxiety, trauma, relationship concerns, and more. She also works with couples who are looking to improve communication, manage conflict better, and increase connection and intimacy. 

Nicole works with clients who may be struggling in their relationships, including insecure attachment, history of relational or sexual trauma, difficulties setting boundaries, difficulties understanding and expressing their needs, and feelings of stress or anxiety. Nicole helps clients understand how past experiences may have shaped their beliefs and how they relate to others, and explore how patterns that were once adaptive may no longer be helpful in the present. Nicole works with clients to identify and change unhelpful patterns such as people-pleasing and codependency so that they can identify and express their needs, set effective boundaries, and connect with their self and others in a way that feels genuine and authentic. 

Nicole draws from various therapeutic approaches in her work, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness-based approaches, Somatic Attachment Therapy, and Gottman Method Couples Therapy. Nicole's approach is tailored to fit the unique needs and circumstance of each client. Nicole incorporates trauma-informed, attachment-based, and somatic approaches in her work. 

Nicole understands that finding the right counsellor is not an easy task, that's why she offers new clients a free 30-minute virtual consultation to get to know each other before committing to working together.
