A Super-Warm Welcome to Nicole Grimaldo, LSWAIC

A New Voice for Healing at Freesia Therapy Collective!

We are so excited to welcome Nicole Grimaldo, LSWAIC to the Freesia Therapy Collective team! Nicole works primarily with young adults, cycle-breakers, frontline professionals, and individuals navigating LGBTQIA+ issues and major life transitions — bringing a perspective that is both clinically rigorous and deeply human. What makes Nicole's approach truly distinctive is the way she bridges clinical science with metaphysical healing, guided by Systems Theory and her own lived experience as a person of color. From day one, clients can expect to be met with an equity-focused, deeply validating presence where every part of who they are is fully seen and held with dignity.

Nicole brings nearly a decade of experience working in community and inpatient settings — addressing behavioral health crises, psychiatric emergencies, and complex trauma — and has pursued advanced clinical training in trauma-informed care, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), human sexuality, and addiction psychology. That breadth of real-world and clinical experience means Nicole is equipped to walk alongside clients through some of life's most difficult and layered moments. We are so glad she has found her home here at Freesia, and we know her clients will be too.
