I began pursuing a mental health career in 2018 through the University of Central Florida's undergrad psychology degree path. I completed my degree with a certification in victim advocacy in 2022. I began the Master of Social Work program back at UCF again in 2024. My career goals include working with children and families through family-centered care interventions.

Meet Nicole
What was your path to pursuing the mental health field?
I knew from a young age that I was going to work in the mental health field through my own journey in therapy and healing. I graduated with my psychology degree, and I felt like there was something still missing. I learned what a licensed clinical social worker does and realized that social work was my calling. Before going back to UCF for graduate school, I worked as a registered behavior technician, facilitating ABA for children diagnosed with autism. This position helped me discover my clinical career goals, which are to work with children and adolescents experiencing trauma and other mental health struggles impacting their well-being.
What should someone know about working with you?
You should know that I love getting to know everyone's experiences working in this field. I believe learning through others and their experiences is one of the best ways to strengthen your own work.
