About
I believe meaningful change begins when you feel truly heard, understood, and supported, and I bring a compassionate, collaborative approach that honors each client’s unique experiences, strengths, and goals.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor (LPC-S) in Texas and a counselor educator with a Ph.D. in Counselor Education from Texas Tech University, a Master of Education in Counseling, and a Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies from West Texas A&M University. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, self-esteem challenges, career concerns, or difficulty navigating significant life transitions. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and individualized, creating a safe space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes.
My counseling approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and identifying patterns that may be getting in the way of your well-being. Together, we will explore unhelpful thought patterns, develop coping strategies, and build skills that support lasting change.
Taking the first step toward counseling can feel difficult, but you do not have to navigate life's challenges alone. I am here to meet you with compassion and understanding. Together, we can identify your strengths and develop practical tools to help you move toward greater confidence, clarity, and well-being. I invite you to schedule an appointment.

As someone who has gone through a wide range of trauma and stress in my own life, it is my goal to empower and help others in their personal growth and healing.
My name is Nicole Sharp and am a Bryan/ College Station native. I went to Texas A&M University for my undergraduate and received a BA in Psychology. I then attended the University of Houston- Clear Lake for my MA in Marriage and Family (Systems Theory) therapy. I work with clients from 6 years old to older people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, personal growth, loss and grief, stress, codependency, women's issues, relational challenges. From a systems approach, I help clients also address any systematic (work, family, cultural, socioeconomic systems) they attribute to them feeling "stuck" in old patterns and behaviors.
My approach is very collaborative. My clients are the experts of their lives. I am just the tour guide helping them navigate where they want to go. I adapt Cognitive Behavioral therapy, psychoeducation and other training to best adapt and help each adult and teen client. With children, play, games and storytelling are often used.
You are the expert of the life that you have lived. If you are ready to take the next step in your wholeness and healing journey, I would love to partner alongside you. "Every great journey starts with a single step" - Maya Angelou.

At Thriveworks, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a widely recognized and evidence-based form of psychotherapy or talk therapy. It focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns, emotions, and behaviors that can contribute to various mental health issues or challenges that people are struggling with.
Cognitive behavioral therapists specialize in Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and can help you to identify and comprehend your thought patterns, which often encompass automatic negative thoughts, cognitive distortions, and self-defeating beliefs. Once these negative thought patterns are pinpointed, cognitive behavioral therapists aim to challenge and replace them with the objective of fostering more constructive and logical thinking. In addition, these therapists place significant emphasis on implementing positive behavioral changes based on the newly established, healthier thought patterns.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is particularly effective for addressing conditions like anxiety disorders, depression, phobias, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. It focuses on identifying and modifying negative thought patterns and behaviors, making it well-suited for issues related to distorted thinking and emotional regulation.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
The success rate of CBT varies depending on the intentions of the client and their condition(s).
The selection between cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is based on an individual’s unique needs and challenges. CBT is commonly chosen for addressing conditions such as anxiety and depression, whereas DBT is especially beneficial for individuals dealing with borderline personality disorder, emotional regulation issues, and difficulties in interpersonal relationships.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with our Thriveworks therapists in College Station, TX is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Generally, CBT is considered a short-term therapy, typically lasting for about 12 to 20 weekly sessions. In some cases, it might extend to around 16 to 20 sessions for more complex issues.
