Your past doesn’t define you. All of the experiences you have had led you to this moment, right here, right now. Embrace the present moment and learn to live a more fulfilling and purposeful life. Allow yourself the time and space to dream of your future, and then make the plans to get there, one breath at a time.

You deserve Love. Respect. Kindness. Compassion. Fulfillment. Joy. Freedom. Passion. Connection.

Throughout this journey of life we are all met with suffering, yet we can create the life that we have imagined for ourselves and heal our hearts, bodies, minds, and souls.

With a combination of western sciences and eastern modalities, I am here to help you reclaim your connection to peace.

Your heart has the ability to heal, your mind has the power to rewire stuck patterns and your body can release emotions. Together, with this mind-body-spirit approach, you can consciously transform your life.

I am here to help you heal. With a heart-centered and nurturing approach, I create the space for you to step into your highest self. Whether that is as a parent, a partner, an employee, an employer, or simply a human being on this planet.

Hi, I’m Nicole!


I'm the owner of Healing with Heart Psychotherapy and one of the co-owners of Spirit of the Lake Yoga and Wellness Center in Shorewood, Minnesota. I am a trained mental health therapist, certified life coach, reiki healer, and registered yoga teacher.

As a natural healer all of my life, I've worked with a variety of populations (at-risk kids, veterans, domestic violence and sexual assault victims and more) in various settings. 

Working from the perspective that everyone has the tools to heal within them, I guide my clients to uncover their hidden potential and ability to heal. I incorporate mindfulness, breathwork, guided imagery and relaxation, energy healing, as well as mind-body medicine techniques into my practice, when and where it is appropriate for clients. 

I work with all ages, from kids who may be struggling with anxiety or school pressures, to adults who are experiencing a life transition, grief, stress, or any other life challenge. I bring in a whole person (mind, body, and spirit) approach to working with clients therapeutically.

I'm so glad you are here and I look forward to working with you!
