Nick Worstell
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Step into a specialized realm of compassionate care tailored specifically for children and adolescents. With a foundation rooted in years of experience as an elementary and middle school counselor, I offer expert guidance to support young minds through the challenges of childhood and adolescence. Utilizing a child-centered and developmentally sensitive approach, I provide a safe and nurturing environment where young individuals can explore their emotions, navigate social dynamics, and develop essential coping skills. Whether addressing academic stress, family conflicts, peer relationships, or emotional regulation, I offer personalized interventions grounded in evidence-based practices. Through collaboration with parents, teachers, and other key stakeholders, I strive to foster resilience, promote positive growth, and empower young clients to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

Strides in Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PSY.D.
Usually, when people think about psychotherapy, they imagine sitting on a couch in an office talking to a therapist about their problems. This style of therapy works just fine for many adults and adolescents. However, most younger children express themselves better through play than through words—for them, play is a primary method of communication. Even very bright and highly verbal children may find it difficult to talk about situations when strong feelings are involved. This is why they might shrug their shoulders, refuse to answer or say “I don’t know” when asked what is wrong. They might also “act out” or try to communicate to you through their behavior rather than through words, and sometimes these behaviors can get them into trouble at home or at school or be misunderstood by those around them. In addition, children often find it hard to sit still and talk for 45 minutes in a row, and they enjoy coming to therapy much more when play is a part of the equation.
