Meet Dr. Nicole Parker

I love what I do. It is my extreme honor to devote my life to helping couples and new parents live the best lives they can. I believe most any challenge can be overcome when we have love and support in our lives. I help couples to communicate and connect with each other in healthier ways, and I help parents take care of themselves so that they can be more present for their children. It is the mission of my practice to be a premier resource for couples and new families in Michigan and I have devoted myself to being the top clinician for the issues that I treat.

My approach to therapy is very focused on building new skills, growing awareness and understanding of emotions, and I use a solution-focused approach to support wellbeing. The therapy model that I use will vary whether I am meeting with you as an individual or as a couple. It’s important to me that you feel you are learning and growing, and gaining something new from the time that we spend together, but it’s also important that my clients feel heard and understood. While all the work that I do is rooted in scientifically supported techniques, I am flexible in how I apply those techniques. I often assign videos for you to watch, brief articles to read, and homework to complete outside of session. I only have a small window of time to spend with you so to maximize the effectiveness of our session I want you to be making progress even when we are not in session together.
