Nicole Grubman, LCMHC (Founding member)

 I am the founder and clinical director of the Hinesburg Counseling Collaborative (HCC), where my work is split between providing psychotherapy and EMDR treatment, and supporting the growth and development of clinicians through mentorship and sustainable supervised billing practices.

I have over 20 years of experience in the field of mental health and human services and have worked across outpatient counseling, crisis intervention, community mental health, and program leadership. My clinical background includes extensive training in behavioral and humanistic approaches including CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness-based interventions, and EMDR therapy.

In my clinical work, I help clients better understand the emotional roots of their struggles while building greater self-compassion, resilience, authenticity, and connection in their lives and relationships. I have a particular interest in working with trauma, anxiety, mood disorders, grief and life transitions.

My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that healing happens within safe, genuine, and collaborative relationships. I strive to create a counseling environment where clients feel seen and supported. I invite my clients:

to reconnect with their strengths

to align their actions with core values 

to rewire their nervous system through somatic practices 

to challenge the current effectiveness of cognitive and behavioral patterns.

To be here now. 

I am also a mother of 2 school-aged daughters, an avid walker and dancer, nature lover, and free-spirited adventurer of both the inner and outer landscape.
