About Nicolas
Nicolas Gross is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 20 years of clinical experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, family-of-origin patterns, grief, depression, and adjustment to life changes. He also addresses concerns such as addiction, intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, and ADHD.
Nicolas aims for straightforward, collaborative sessions. He helps people name the patterns that keep repeating from childhood and the family they grew up in. Conversations focus on current problems and practical next steps rather than labels. Sessions combine talk, goal-setting, and creative tools to address everyday struggles.
He often starts by mapping how past family expectations and roles affect present choices. From there he and the client set small, actionable goals. The work covers relationship patterns, communication problems, and ways to reduce overwhelming emotions. He uses cognitive and narrative techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and reframe old stories.
Nicolas draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to link values with behavior change. Client-Centered and Existential ideas shape how he listens and asks questions about meaning. The emphasis is on practical skills that can be used between sessions to manage stress and improve relationships.
Clients can expect a steady, problem-solving approach that focuses on clear goals. Nicolas helps people identify strengths they already have and puts those strengths to use. He invites clients to try different strategies and tracks what works over time.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to ease symptoms like depression and anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflection so the client can notice their own concerns and strengths.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which combination of methods fits their goals and preferences. That may mean trying a strategy for several sessions and adjusting it based on what helps in real life.
Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography did not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand them, and remove travel time so people can use a break at work or after childcare. Therapists and licensed professionals generally adapt exercises, worksheets, and conversational techniques so they work in a remote session, and that flexibility can help clients practice new skills between meetings.
