About Nicolas

Nicolas Gross is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, licensed in Florida with 20 years of clinical experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and family concerns, addiction, trauma, and common life changes.

He often sees people at a crossroads who feel blocked by past experiences or by beliefs that limit what they try. Sessions focus on clear conversation about what gets in the way. He helps people identify patterns and practical steps they can try between meetings.

Therapy combines talk work with goal-setting and practical tools. He draws from approaches that include acceptance and commitment work, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, narrative methods, and existential questions. Those methods are used to notice unhelpful habits, test new behaviors, and redefine priorities.

Nicolas pays attention to everyday pressures like work, caregiving, and relationship demands. He supports people dealing with parenting strain, caregiver stress, aging concerns, adoption and foster care issues, and challenges tied to identity such as LGBT matters. He also addresses things like anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Sessions are aimed at uncovering strengths and building a step-by-step plan for change. People can expect direct conversation, a focus on workable strategies, and an emphasis on realistic next steps rather than abstract theories. The intent is to reduce interference in daily life and help clients move toward clearer choices and actions.

BHow sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions. It focuses on values and small steps toward what matters, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to test new ways of coping; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and habit change. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building a respectful working relationship so clients can explore concerns at their own pace and discover their own solutions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first, and will adjust based on what helps the client reach their goals and feels workable in day-to-day life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules - they can reduce travel time, make it easier to attend during a work break, or allow for a shorter check-in when needed. Online work can still use ACT exercises, CBT worksheets, and narrative conversations; the focus stays on practical steps you can use between sessions.
