About Nicole

Nicole Deisher is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Indiana and an LISW licensed in Ohio with 11 years of professional experience. She focuses on common life problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and issues around motivation and self-esteem. Her work also covers addictions, grief, sleep problems, intimacy-related concerns, and attention-related challenges like ADHD.

Nicole uses straightforward, skills-based work to help people manage symptoms and handle day-to-day strain. She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness to teach practical tools for emotion regulation, coping, and clearer thinking. Sessions often include small behavioral steps and skills practice between meetings.

Her practice also addresses concerns linked to family of origin, attachment and abandonment, adoption and foster care, and identity issues including LGBT topics. Nicole has experience supporting people facing mood disorders, bipolar presentations, dissociation, and substance use problems. She also works with communication and relationship patterns that keep problems repeating.

Nicole describes clients as experts in their own lives and focuses on collaboration. She helps people name priorities, try focused strategies, and track what changes. Progress is measured by clearer goals and more useful daily habits rather than labels.

To start, readers should be prepared to complete an initial matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

BHow sessions work

How Nicole brings evidence-based methods online

Nicole commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills for people who have strong mood swings or relationship conflicts.

She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. Mindfulness grounding exercises and short practices can help with sleep problems, stress, and attention difficulties. Deciding which approaches to use is a collaborative process: the therapist and client review goals, try methods, and adjust plans based on what helps most.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work days, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit isn't practical. Many people find that remote work supports steady practice of skills between sessions and smoother follow-through on homework and coping exercises.
