My name is Nicole Schefers and I am pursuing licensure in the state of Minnesota as a Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I spent my college career studying how both the brain and systems impact our mental health. I do not believe that we can look at what is happening with an individual without looking at and analyzing the systems they are apart of. I look forward to navigating tough waters with you, meeting you where you are at, and walking alongside you as we work towards where you want to be and who you want to become.
