About Nicole
Nicole Reineri is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with four years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationships, intimacy concerns, depression, addictions, grief, parenting struggles, and related issues such as attachment and abandonment.
She trained in psychology for her undergraduate degree and earned a master’s degree in professional counseling from Lindenwood University. Before practicing as a counselor she worked in vocational rehabilitation, pain management, drug and alcohol addiction services, and applied behavior analysis. Her master’s practicum involved group work with at-risk high school youth and crisis counseling.
Nicole uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), client-centered ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused approaches, and existential perspectives. Sessions focus on sorting thoughts, naming feelings, and identifying practical steps that match a person’s values and goals.
Her background includes teaching introductory psychology at the college level and running a private practice. That variety of experience informs how she adapts sessions for different concerns. She often combines person-centered listening with structured tools to address patterns that keep someone stuck.
People who come for help can expect a collaborative process. Nicole aims to help people increase coping skills, notice unhelpful patterns, and practice new behaviors that fit their goals. To begin, clients use the service matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and practicing actions that reflect those values, often through mindfulness and behavioral experiments. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, reflection, and supporting a person's own problem-solving so they feel heard and can identify next steps.Choosing an approach is a collaborative part of early sessions. The therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels useful. Together they try methods and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
Session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to travel. It also makes it simple to continue work during life changes or when coordinating with other responsibilities. The therapist will discuss which methods and scheduling patterns best match a client's needs and daily routine.
