Nurturing Hearts Therapeutic Services, PLLC

Hi, I’m Shakara Nixon, LCSW, founder of Nurturing Hearts Therapeutic Services, PLLC. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over nine years of experience providing mental health services to adolescents, adults, and families. I provide online therapy to clients throughout Florida and Virginia. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel safe, heard, supported, and free from judgment. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and individualized because no two people—and no two journeys—are the same. I support teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, pregnancy and postpartum concerns, and other mental health challenges. I incorporate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to help clients better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while developing practical tools for meaningful change. You are the expert on your own life. My role is to walk alongside you, provide support and guidance, and help you develop the skills and insight needed to move toward the life you want. Whether you're working through a difficult experience, adjusting to a major life change, or simply looking for a space to better understand yourself, you don't have to navigate it alone. Nurturing Hearts Therapeutic Services provides secure, convenient virtual therapy for clients located throughout Florida and Virginia.
