Nicole Edwards

LMHC-D

Nicole Edwards is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Co-Owner of With Grace Mental Health Counseling PLLC. She works with couples and individuals who are seeking a more thoughtful, structured, and in-depth approach to therapy, particularly when previous efforts have not led to lasting change.

Her work is grounded in evidence-based, relational models, including Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and attachment-based approaches. Nicole’s clinical focus centers on helping clients understand and shift the underlying patterns driving distress, rather than only addressing surface-level symptoms.

Nicole works extensively with: 

  • Couples experiencing recurring conflict, disconnection, or betrayal

  • Individuals navigating high-functioning anxiety, relational stress, and internal pressure

  • Clients seeking deeper, more intentional therapeutic work 

Her approach is active, structured, and depth-oriented. She guides clients in identifying interactional cycles, understanding emotional and relational dynamics, and creating meaningful, lasting change. In her work with couples, Nicole utilizes live restructuring of communication within sessions, directly guiding interactions in real time while maintaining a steady, supportive therapeutic environment. 

She is comfortable addressing complex and emotionally heavy topics, and is known for her ability to balance depth with moments of appropriate humor and lightness, helping clients remain engaged in the work without feeling overwhelmed.

In addition to her clinical work, Nicole provides clinical supervision to her team at With Grace as well as to other clinicians throughout New York State, supporting the development of thoughtful, evidence-based practice. 

For clients who desire it, Nicole also offers Christian-informed therapy, integrating faith into the therapeutic process in a way that is respectful, grounded, and aligned with each client’s values.

Nicole is known for creating a clear, grounded therapeutic environment while working with complex relational dynamics with precision and care.
