About Nicole
Nicole Wilbur is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with 19 years of clinical experience. She draws on long work in hospitals, homecare, hospice, palliative care, brain injury services, and schools to guide practical support. Nicole is experienced helping people with common and complex concerns.
Her manner is warm and interactive and she focuses on what a person needs right now. Nicole sees people who report stress, anxiety, depression, and mood challenges including bipolar disorder.
Background and approach
She helps those coping with trauma, grief, addiction, and struggles related to ADHD or autism. Anger and communication difficulties are also areas she addresses in sessions. Her approach mixes client-centered conversation with cognitive behavioral ideas and mindfulness strategies.
She uses elements from dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing when those fit a person’s goals. Sessions emphasize identifying strengths and building practical skills to handle day-to-day problems. Nicole often translates clinical ideas into straightforward tools people can use at home.
That can mean simple breathing and grounding practices, breaking down thoughts and behaviors into steps, or setting doable goals for change. She also brings group work and educational experience to help people learn new ways of coping. Conversations are tailored to each person’s situation and pace.
Nicole aims to help people improve communication, manage strong emotions, and move toward changes that matter to them.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Nicole uses client-centered therapy to keep sessions focused on the person’s priorities and lived experience. That means conversations are shaped around what matters most to the client and progress is guided by their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviors and try small experiments to change them; it is useful for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and anger management.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Nicole will listen to what you want to change and suggest methods that fit your needs and preferences. Decisions about techniques are collaborative and can shift over time as goals evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow a more face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can fit brief check-ins or skill practice between longer meetings. These options make it easier to maintain momentum and fit therapy into a busy life.
