About Nicole

Nicole Hubbs is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Minnesota with 15 years of clinical experience. She has worked with children, teens, adults, and families across school and clinical settings. Nicole is calm and direct in sessions and focuses on helping people manage day-to-day struggles and stronger reactions like anger.

She uses a person-centered style that starts by listening and asking practical questions. Nicole blends approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to match each person's needs. Sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings and on understanding patterns that keep problems repeating.

Nicole often helps with stress, anxiety, parenting and family challenges, grief, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, mood issues like depression and bipolar, and attention-related difficulties such as ADHD. She also addresses concerns like body image, attachment wounds, codependency, and communication problems.

In sessions she aims to be open-minded and curious rather than judgmental. That tone guides how goals are set and how progress is checked. Nicole encourages people to notice what helps and to adjust strategies when something isn’t working.

Her background includes many years supporting children and adolescents in schools and providing clinical work with adults and families. Treatment plans are individualized, and Nicole works with each person to find the right mix of strategies and supports.

Approach and online therapy options

Nicole often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at unhelpful thinking and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change them. CBT can help with anger, anxiety, sleep, and mood by giving practical tools to try between sessions.

She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand strong emotions and improve how they connect with others. EFT can be useful when anger is tied to relationship patterns, attachment, or communication breakdowns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nicole will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut commute time, and let people join from a quieter place or during a break. It also allows for shorter check-ins when needed and for using video or audio in ways that suit each person.
