Nicole Rossetti

Nicole Rossetti is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, anger, and self-esteem concerns. She takes a direct, practical approach to problem solving and aims to help clients find balance in daily life. Nicole has 11 years of clinical experience and works from New Jersey. Nicole uses clear, step-by-step planning in sessions. She listens first, then helps people set small, doable goals. She combines practical tools with moment-to-moment skills so clients can handle cravings, strong emotion, or work and family pressures more effectively. Her background includes a Bachelor’s degree from Rutgers University and a Master of Social Work from Columbia University. She holds an LCSW license in Oregon and an LCSW in New Jersey. Over the past decade she has worked with people facing life transitions, career and college stress, women’s issues, and young adult concerns. In therapy Nicole draws on several approaches including cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior skills, emotionally focused ideas, mindfulness, and client-centered work. She adapts methods to the person, blending skills training, problem-solving, and reflective conversation as needed. Sessions emphasize collaboration. Clients set the agenda and Nicole helps map practical steps toward their goals. The focus is on real-life changes people can try between sessions to reduce impulsivity, improve communication, and build healthier routines. Nicole also addresses specific struggles such as smoking or vaping cessation, substance use, body image, and workplace stress. She encourages steady progress and ongoing adjustment of the plan as needs change.

How Nicole’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy invites a focus on the person’s goals and perspective, with the therapist listening closely and reflecting back what matters most. This approach helps clarify priorities and keeps sessions rooted in the client’s day-to-day concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing intense emotion and impulsivity, including attention to distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist and client will explore what feels most useful, try methods in session, and adjust the plan as needs and goals evolve. That collaborative testing helps find what fits each person’s life and learning style.

Nicole’s profile mentions telehealth, but it does not list other session types, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use mindfulness or skills practice in real-life settings between meetings. Licensed professionals adapt these approaches for remote sessions so clients can continue progress without putting routines on hold.
