Nicole Cheleotis, LPC, LMHC

Nicole Cheleotis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She has eight years of clinical experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. Nicole focuses on practical steps people can use each day to feel steadier and more in control.

She creates a warm, accepting space where people can say what they are feeling without judgment. Building trust and working together are central to her approach. Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit each person's needs and comfort level.

Nicole draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered work, EMDR, mindfulness, and narrative ideas as tools to address problems. She picks strategies that suit the issue at hand and the person's goals rather than using one single method for everyone.

In sessions she helps people learn skills for managing stress, handling panic, improving relationships, and coping with caregiver strain or attachment concerns. She also addresses identity-related issues such as gender dysphoria and LGBT-related stress with sensitivity and respect.

Nicole works with adults on issues like parenting strain, adoption and foster care questions, forgiveness, and finding life purpose. She aims to help people regain balance and rebuild routines that support wellbeing.

Therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How Nicole Uses Therapeutic Tools Online

Nicole often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR with client-centered techniques. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with simple experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood. EMDR uses guided attention and memory processing to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and related symptoms. Client-centered work emphasizes listening, validation, and building a trusting working relationship so people feel heard and can set their own goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Nicole collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. She will adapt exercises and pacing based on what is most helpful in sessions and between meetings.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this style of work. Video calls let people use visual connection for skill coaching, EMDR procedures, and regular talk therapy. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to send quick updates, get brief coping reminders, or check in between longer meetings. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy lives while keeping the focus on progress and practical tools.
