About Nikkala
Nikkala Kordzik is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, career concerns, ADHD, addictions, grief, relationship and family challenges, sleeping and eating difficulties, and shifts in life circumstances. Nikkala favors plain talk and practical steps.
She uses narrative ideas to help people reframe their stories and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques to clarify values and take doable action.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs. Nikkala listens for what matters most and then helps build small, achievable changes.
She also draws on attachment-based perspectives to look at how close relationships shape feelings and choices. Her work mixes short-term skills with deeper reflection. Some people come for concrete symptom relief like managing anxiety or improving sleep.
Others want to understand recurring patterns like codependency, control issues, or difficulty with communication. Nikkala aims to make therapy usable between sessions. She focuses on clear goals and simple strategies people can practice in daily life.
Outside of work she enjoys exercise, sports, reading, and time with family and dogs.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Nikkala directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How narrative and values-based therapy work online
Online sessions often combine Narrative Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people make sense of their problems and move toward what matters. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and looks for alternative narratives that open up new options. This can help with issues like codependency, imposter feelings, or patterns that keep repeating.ACT helps people name their values and take small, committed steps in those directions while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-based ideas are also useful for understanding how relationship patterns shape reactions and for improving communication and boundary setting.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit, and adjust as needed. That collaborative process helps decide when to use narrative reframing, ACT exercises, CBT techniques, or attachment-focused work.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for longer, face-to-face conversations and skills practice. Phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or between-session support. These options make therapy flexible and easier to fit into busy lives.
