About Nicole
Nicole Canedo is a licensed clinical social worker in Nevada with six years of practice. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, low mood, trauma, and struggles with self-esteem. Nicole aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable and supported.
She creates a straightforward space for people to talk about what matters to them. Sessions are meant to be open and nonjudgmental so clients can share thoughts and feelings honestly.
Background and approach
Conversations center on present concerns and usable steps forward. Nicole blends Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside psychodynamic and solution-focused ideas. That mix helps uncover unhelpful stories people tell about themselves and then build clearer, practical coping skills.
Work in sessions can include looking at past patterns and trying new ways of responding in daily life. She commonly addresses relationship difficulties, parenting stress, grief, intimacy questions, and workplace or career strain. Nicole also supports people dealing with ADHD, compassion fatigue, social anxiety, and identity concerns in the LGBT community.
The emphasis is on practical change that fits each person’s life. Nicole offers a calm, respectful approach and helps clients set concrete goals. She partners with people to test small changes between sessions and adjust plans as needed.
The process is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

How these approaches translate to online therapy
Nicole commonly uses Narrative Therapy to help people examine the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. This approach helps spot repeating patterns and opens space to try new narratives for dealing with conflict, identity, or life changes.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing skills to change reactions and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and social phobia because it breaks problems into concrete parts that can be worked on step by step.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nicole will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. That might mean mixing approaches and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone visits can be easier when bandwidth is limited or visuals are not needed. Live chat and text messaging can support brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or people who prefer writing. These options help match therapy to busy schedules, transportation limits, or different comfort levels with communication.
