About Nicolas
Nicolas Gross is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life transitions. He works with individuals facing relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction challenges, parenting strain, and issues related to LGBT wellbeing. He brings two decades of clinical experience to the work and focuses on practical steps clients can try between sessions.
Nicolas treats sessions as a cooperative project. He listens for what matters most to each person, then helps set small, realistic goals. Conversations mix direct talk about problems with exercises that encourage new thinking and behavior. The aim is to reduce overwhelming feelings and increase everyday functioning.
His approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered methods, Narrative ideas, and Existential perspectives. That combination lets him match methods to the problem at hand, whether it's chronic worry, addiction, or low self-esteem. He helps clients identify patterns, test new responses, and build routines that support steady change.
Nicolas emphasizes strengths and resilience. He helps people notice skills they already have and use those skills to move forward. Sessions often include clear steps, homework tasks, and reflective conversation to keep momentum between visits.
He is licensed in Florida and has worked in clinical settings for 20 years. Sessions are conducted in English. Prospective clients who want to start are encouraged to use the site's Start Therapy flow to match and schedule a first appointment.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then take small actions that align with personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thought patterns and tests new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and experience, with the therapist providing attentive listening and support to help people find their own answers.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That process may include trying different techniques and adjusting as progress is made.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. Many people find that remote sessions let them continue steady work on goals and skills without rearranging their day entirely.
