About Nicole

Nicole Hubbs is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Minnesota with 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship pain, and life transitions. Nicole works with individual adults and parents to address everyday struggles and deeper emotional wounds.

She uses a warm, curious style in sessions and aims to make therapy feel understandable and manageable. Nicole listens closely, asks clear questions, and helps people name what they are feeling.

Background and approach

Her approach is grounded in compassion and practical steps rather than jargon. Nicole combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy with client-centered work and cognitive behavioral tools. That means she pays attention to feelings in the moment, prioritizes the client’s own perspective, and helps change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

She draws on other methods when they fit the person’s goals and situation. Common concerns she addresses include parenting stress, family tensions, grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, body image, eating and sleeping problems, and work or career stress. She also supports people facing mood disorders, ADHD, and complex emotional patterns such as attachment or avoidance issues.

Sessions are offered in English and take place online through video, phone, chat, or text formats. Nicole asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to get started and then schedule sessions that fit their needs.

Online support

How emotion-focused and practical approaches work online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name strong feelings in the room so those feelings can be understood and shifted; it is useful for relationship hurt, attachment concerns, and deep emotional reactions. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, giving space for the client to lead sessions while the therapist listens and reflects back what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Nicole treats the selection of methods as a collaborative process, checking in about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. She may blend emotion-focused listening with CBT tools or client-centered pacing based on what the client needs.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and work through emotional material together. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, homework discussions, or ongoing encouragement between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules while keeping the focus on progress and connection.
