About Nikki
Nikki Lewis-Clark is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Montana with 24 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, grief, addictions, and issues such as ADHD and self-esteem. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication rather than abstract theory.
Her early work involved family reunification for children removed because of neglect and abuse. That background informs a steady approach to safety, boundaries, and rebuilding trust. Nikki also has experience supporting service members and their families through diversity and inclusion counseling roles.
Nikki uses several therapeutic approaches to help people untangle difficult emotions and patterns. She lists Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) among her methods. In sessions she mixes skills practice, noticing patterns, and direct conversation to address problems like anger, intimacy concerns, and coping with life changes.
She works with a wide range of life issues from career stress and caregiver fatigue to chronic illness and body image. Nikki also addresses more specific areas such as adoption and foster care, abandonment, blended family concerns, and nonconventional sexual cultures like BDSM and kink. The aim is to give concrete tools for daily life and clearer ways to relate to others.
People who choose her can expect straightforward feedback and practical strategies alongside attention to emotional experience. To begin, readers are asked to use the site controls to match and schedule a first session.
How EFT and related approaches are used in online sessions
Nikki lists Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) as one approach she uses; EFT centers on helping people name and work with strong emotions and relationship patterns that are hard to change on their own. It can be useful for clients who want to understand attachment responses and improve how they relate emotionally to others.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current attachment experiences shape expectations and behavior in relationships. It helps people notice repeating patterns and try different ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting each person's perspective so they can find their own solutions and build confidence.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Nikki will work collaboratively to identify which method or mix of methods fits a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That means discussing what feels most useful and adjusting plans as therapy progresses.
