About Nicole
Nicole Canedo is a licensed clinical social worker with six years of professional experience in Nevada. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and parenting. Nicole aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and clear.
Nicole creates an open space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings without judgment. She uses everyday language and straightforward goals so sessions feel focused and useful.
Background and approach
Talking through what feels stuck is the main way she helps people begin to shift patterns. Her work addresses trauma and abuse, self-esteem and confidence, grief, and intimacy-related issues. She also supports people handling career changes, compassion fatigue, ADHD concerns, and the strain of blended family dynamics.
These areas often show up together, and she helps clients sort priorities and make small changes. Nicole draws on several therapeutic approaches to shape sessions. She helps clients notice unhelpful thinking, tell and reshape their life stories, and identify practical steps they can try between meetings.
The goal is to build tools that fit the client’s day-to-day life. Sessions are conducted in English and designed to fit into real schedules. Nicole encourages people who feel overwhelmed or uncertain to take one step at a time.
She works alongside each person to set achievable goals and track progress over time.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Nicole often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is practical and works well for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking down problems into small, testable steps.She also draws on Narrative Therapy to help clients reframe the stories they tell about themselves. This approach helps when past events or repeating patterns feel stuck and someone wants a different perspective on their history and choices.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Nicole works with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. Clients are invited to share feedback so sessions stay useful and on track.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let conversations feel close to in-person meetings, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat can work for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between sessions.
