Nikki Ford

Counselor, MA

Arlington Heights, IL US
Nikki Ford, Counselor, MA, LCPC, understands that nobody is perfect and that it’s human to ask for help. She encourages individuals to rally through difficult times, confront uncomfortable feelings, make tough decisions, and embrace confidence in their journey. Nikki's personal philosophy is centered around the belief that therapy is not meant to be easy — it's about stepping outside of comfort zones and fostering growth. She is committed to pushing her clients, holding them accountable, and encouraging them to take risks, set boundaries, and conquer their fears. As Brene Brown suggests, ‘Daring Greatly’ encompasses the courage to be vulnerable and engage fully in one's own life. Nikki motivates her clients to show up for themselves, cultivating confidence in their decision-making processes. While navigating through feelings such as anxiety and depression may not be straightforward, Nikki assures that the effort will be worthwhile. Throughout the therapeutic journey, she skillfully utilizes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and solution-focused brief therapy to unravel individual dynamics. Nikki takes pride in fostering a comfortable and laid-back therapeutic environment, enabling clients to relax and engage in the process, often with a bit of fun along the way. She specializes in addressing issues related to anxiety, life transitions, and relationship challenges, offering her expertise in a safe space for clients to flourish.
