ABOUT HARBOR COUNSELING
Nicole O'Neill, LCSW, PMH-C, Founder and Owner of Harbor Counseling, LCSW
My name is Nicole O'Neill and I own and operate Harbor Counseling, LCSW, a private practice in the heart of Northport, NY. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional. I have been in the social work field for over 14 years. In addition to providing therapy for adolescents, couples, families and adults, some of my eclectic experience entails working in a school-based mental health clinic, running a program for new moms, and overseeing mentoring programs. I'm passionate about helping people through challenging life transitions which is why I feel I connect so well with adolescents, young adults and parents. I am grateful every day for my clients who share their stories with me and make the effort just by stepping into my office to make positive changes in their lives.

FAMILY & COUPLES THERAPY
Improve Relationship Dynamics
Do you want more peace and less conflict in your home? In my therapy sessions, we’ll work to identify and overcome obstacles in your most significant relationships. I work with families and couples to enhance communication and challenge current patterns of behavior that get in the way of connection.
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
A Happier, Healthier You
I am a firm believer that everyone can benefit from individual therapy. Feelings of stress, anxiety, depression, can all seem overwhelming when we try to take them on ourselves. Let me help you sort through your feelings and work with you to develop the coping skills to make them manageable.
GROUP THERAPY
Mutual Support
Group therapy has always been a favorite of mine. It is wonderful to witness the power of a shared experience and the validation and support that comes out of it. I am currently developing new groups so if there is a specific group you would like to see, please let me know.
