Nikki Plavec
Introduction
Nikki Plavec is a licensed clinical mental health counselor in private practice who works with adults seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships. Her approach is collaborative and thoughtful, helping clients gently explore patterns, emotions, and experiences that may feel stuck or overwhelming. She specializes in working with individuals facing grief and loss, chronic illness, relationship stress, and major life changes. Nikki integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), parts-informed and attachment-focused work, and experiential approaches that support emotional processing and nervous system regulation. She aims to create a space where clients feel understood, supported, and able to move at a pace that feels right for them. Before becoming a psychotherapist, Nikki worked in speech therapy—an experience that continues to inform her deep respect for communication, connection, and the ways our personal histories shape how we relate to ourselves and others. She focuses on helping clients cultivate self-trust, emotional resilience, and greater flexibility in how they navigate life’s challenges.
