About
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.

My go-to approach for helping people in individual therapy is twofold. The first is to be sure I really understand and connect with the person to truly understand his/her unique situations and concerns. The second is to create an agreed-upon plan where we both are working to problem-solve and heal. I enjoy this collaborative approach because the more the person invests in the process, the more exciting and rewarding the journey becomes!
I teach many tools in therapy and the most common is self-compassion. We can often use internal negative feedback as a way to motivate ourselves, but over time it can stop working (if it worked at all) and drag us down. We need to get out of that cycle!
I know when an individual is making meaningful progress in therapy because he/she is making changes outside of the therapy office.
I often give homework for clients to do outside of therapy. Podcasts, articles, books, journaling, and short essays can all help the client feel more empowered in their own healing journey.
To prepare for your first therapy session, you can list what you are struggling with and what you want to change. Becoming an active participant in your own therapy is the key to a successful experience in therapy.
Individual therapy, also known as Individual therapy, allows people to engage in private sessions with a skilled therapist, counselor, or psychologist. The core objective of individual therapy is to establish a secure and confidential setting where you can openly discuss whatever emotional, psychological, or behavioral challenges you face. Through these one-on-one sessions, the client and therapist work together to delve into, comprehend, and ultimately find solutions for the issues at hand in their life.
Individual therapy unfolds in a structured process, commencing with an initial assessment in which the therapist gathers essential information about your history, concerns, and objectives. Together, you and your therapist collaboratively establish specific, attainable goals for your sessions, which can encompass symptom alleviation, personal development, or finding solutions to particular challenges.
Yes, individual therapy, also known as Individual therapy, at Thriveworks can help you to improve your mental health and overall quality of life.
Individual therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of your individual therapy sessions will vary. The decision on the number and frequency of sessions is typically collaboratively determined by the client and therapist.
