Working together, I can assist with obstacles and or challenges related to depression, anxiety, mood disorders, grief, and overall life struggles to find strength and make positive changes.

Mario Nicolas, Ph.D.
Clinical Psychologist
Licensed in TX, PSYPACT in NV, AZ, GA and PA
Hi, I’m Dr. Mario Nicolas. I am a Ph.D. (Penn State, 2002) trained Clinical Psychologist, with extensive experience in Military Mental Health (Maj [Ret. – 2014]; USAF), Clinical Neuropsychology (fellowship trained; Univ. of Virginia Medical School [2005-07]), and Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH; past-USAF program consultant [2015-20]). If you want to learn more, check me out on LinkedIn. I provide virtual individual therapy to adults, and am available on weekday evenings and weekend mornings. I consider myself a cognitive-behavioral therapist, strongly influenced by Acceptance Commitment Therapy. My style of interaction is patient-centered & culturally sensitive; and I consider hearing (not just listening-to) my patient’s situation (your “story”) to be my most important task. I incorporate motivational interviewing, and the science of behavior-change, into everything that I do.
At our initial visit we will go-through a five-stage process:
Stage 1: We discuss legal matters and confidentiality;
Stage 2: We discuss your “story,” and I will a) review information I received about your situation, b) ask you follow-up questions, and c) briefly paraphrase things you are saying (just to make sure I am hearing you);
Stage 3: We spend 1 – 2 minutes summarizing your overall story and checking-in with you to make sure that we are both on the “same page;”
Stage 4: We discuss a plan of treatment that works best for you
Stage 5: We schedule follow-up appointments and/or discuss other administrative matters.
