Entangled in emotional uncertainty? Inclusive Therapy and Consulting Services, spearheaded by Nick Harper, delivers impactful, trauma-informed therapy with an LGBTQ+ emphasis, fostering a secure, sex-positive environment for your development. Armed with a license in clinical social work and a rich tapestry of twelve years of experience, I bring a robust expertise to my practice, particularly in trauma-informed care and affirming approaches to sexuality. Here, you're not just receiving services—you're embarking on a personalized journey towards healing and self-acceptance.
My mission is to create an environment where every individual is valued and understood, a place where your unique challenges are met with innovative, compassionate support. Join me, and let's shape a path that not only acknowledges where you are but also celebrates where you're going.
My practice is a dynamic fusion of proven therapeutic models—including CBT, EMDR, Solution-Focused Therapy, Sex Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing—each selected and refined to resonate with your healing journey. My core belief is that everyone is entitled to a safe, open, and profoundly satisfying life. Let's unlock that life together.
