I provide support and guidance to children, adolescents, and families in order to help them learn healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. We live in a complex and stressful world and are not always equipped with practical strategies to handle the challenges of everyday life or its more unusual challenges. My goal is to help individuals and families develop more satisfying lives. I treat clients with a broad range of psychological concerns. I use a practical and comprehensive approach, addressing each individual's issues within the context of the family, school, and community.

Dr. Nicole Hashemian is a licensed clinical psychologist and neuropsychologist and has broad experience working with individuals and families with a wide variety of mental health disorders.

ITGW works with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages and stages in the lifespan. We believe that people can learn from what their bodies (and not just their thoughts) might be trying to communicate in order to be their best selves. We see our clients in individual therapy, couples counseling, group therapy, and family therapy. Additionally, we offer psychoeducational, neuropsychological and psychological assessments as well as CogMed.

Making the decision to help a child or teen who is struggling academically, behaviorally, socially and/or emotionally may be the most important decision you make. I see each child/teen as a puzzle. Sometimes the pieces fit together perfectly and other times it is necessary to work really hard to find the right piece to complete the puzzle. I use a variety of techniques - play therapy, sand therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy. I believe that a child is part of a larger system, including parents, siblings, and schools. I strive to work with all aspects of a child's world.

I believe that everyone has the ability to grow, heal, and live up to their potential. My role as a therapist is to help you find meaning in your life and access your own inner creativity and strengths. If you are struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, or are having difficulty navigating daily stresses and relationships, I can help. I provide a warm, non-judgmental, and safe environment to address issues that are interfering with ones ability to function optimally as well as teach skills that reduce stress and build self-esteem.

We all experience stress in our lives, but sometimes that stress is overwhelming and we have trouble coping. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can be an incredibly effective tool to help manage anxiety, depression, and other stress-related difficulties. CBT focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in everyday life. As a cognitive-behavioral therapist, my approach is collaborative, individualized, and based on scientific evidence.
