About
I have extensive training in techniques focused on creating neural pathways in the brain, incorporating mindful techniques tailored to you and your healing.
I am a licensed clinical social worker in Texas and Kansas. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who struggle with anxiety/depressive disorders, PTSD/trauma, and grief/loss. I also work with couples to repair and build connections, creating a healthy partnership. I believe relationships are the foundation necessary for healing and provide safe connections with clients. I am passionate about this work because I find joy in helping others grow and strengthen themselves.
I have extensive training in neuropsychology and trauma-informed practices, and understand how life events impact growth and development. I take a whole-person approach, addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of each client. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, and psychoeducation to enhance growth and understanding.
My clients guide the therapeutic process and feel empowered to make the choices they feel best meet their needs. Together, we will focus on developing skills to create your optimal life experience. Reach out today; I am here to work with you.

As someone who has gone through a wide range of trauma and stress in my own life, it is my goal to empower and help others in their personal growth and healing.
My name is Nicole Sharp and am a Bryan/ College Station native. I went to Texas A&M University for my undergraduate and received a BA in Psychology. I then attended the University of Houston- Clear Lake for my MA in Marriage and Family (Systems Theory) therapy. I work with clients from 6 years old to older people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, personal growth, loss and grief, stress, codependency, women's issues, relational challenges. From a systems approach, I help clients also address any systematic (work, family, cultural, socioeconomic systems) they attribute to them feeling "stuck" in old patterns and behaviors.
My approach is very collaborative. My clients are the experts of their lives. I am just the tour guide helping them navigate where they want to go. I adapt Cognitive Behavioral therapy, psychoeducation and other training to best adapt and help each adult and teen client. With children, play, games and storytelling are often used.
You are the expert of the life that you have lived. If you are ready to take the next step in your wholeness and healing journey, I would love to partner alongside you. "Every great journey starts with a single step" - Maya Angelou.

As a bilingual psychologist shaped by my upbringing as the daughter of immigrant parents, I approach therapy with cultural humility and a commitment to helping clients feel understood, supported, and empowered.
I am a licensed psychologist with 9 years of experience providing culturally responsive therapy to children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Many of the clients I work with are seeking a supportive space to better understand their experiences, strengthen relationships, and develop practical tools to improve their emotional well-being.
I earned my doctorate in counseling psychology from Texas A&M University. My approach is collaborative, culturally responsive, and tailored to each client’s unique needs. I draw on evidence-based practices to help individuals, couples, and families build insight, strengthen coping skills, and improve communication and relationships.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel difficult, but you don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I strive to create a supportive and respectful space where you feel heard and understood. If you’re ready to begin working toward greater clarity, healing, and growth, I would be honored to support you.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Couples therapy and marriage counseling, also known as relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy and marriage counseling include:
The types of therapy used in couples and marriage counseling include:
At Thriveworks, Couples/marriage therapy is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.
The Gottman Method of couples therapy is a research-supported approach designed to enhance relationships by bolstering the bond between partners, resolving conflicts, and fostering shared meaning in their relationship through comprehensive assessments and tailored interventions that improve communication, trust, and the overall health of the partnership.
If you’re facing persistent relationship problems, communication breakdowns, or unresolved conflicts that are impacting your emotional well-being and happiness, Couples/marriage therapy may be beneficial for you.
While marriage and couple’s counseling is typically recommended for couples who are experiencing persistent or severe relationship issues, any relationship can benefit from attending these sessions.
Marriage and couples counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage and couples counseling for 12 weeks. However, couples & marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state.
