About me
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Montana with over 21 years of experience working as a therapist. My journey in the field started in reunification of families whose children had been removed due to neglect and abuse. I have worked with Severe Emotional Disturbed youth from the ages of 3 to 18 throughout my career as a therapist. Most recently I was trained as a Diversity and Inclusion Counselor for my work with service members and their families. I have extensive experience in helping clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, grief and loss, family of origin issues, physical trauma or emotional abuse, just to name a few.
My counseling style is warm and interactive, taking time to build rapport as it is a solid foundation for the future counselor/client relationship. I work hard to make sessions with children and teens engaging, fun, yet productive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Empathy is key. However, I am direct and honest with clients. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, solution focused and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek help from a therapist. I love to help and educate clients. I am here to listen and help you learn and apply life changing tools. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
Thank you for your time and I look forward to working with you.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Nikki Lewis-Clark. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Love the way Nikki aproaches problems.
Nikki Lewis-Clark is a great therapist. Checks in with you, sends resources and listens reflectively. She sets the conversation so that you feel in a safe environment. Have been in therapy a couple of times before, but can strongly rate Nikki as the best therapist so far. Thank you, Nikki!
Nikki is a life saver - helping our daughter and us through an emotionally challenging time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.
Nikki is amazing, from the get go she has been so kind and caring
Nikki genuinely cares. You are not just another number when she is your therapist. Your matter to her.
After trying multiple therapists over the years, I was convinced therapy just wasn’t for me and that I was too self aware for it to work. I’m so glad I gave it one last chance - Nikki is amazing and has gotten me through so much. She’s patient, listens, and helps me solve the problem instead of just identifying it. She gives tough love and tells you what you need to hear instead of what you want to hear, which is exactly what I needed. I’ve grown so much since starting therapy with her only a few months ago, and truly feel like I am more stable, more secure, and am able to handle problems much better. Could not recommend her enough!
Nikki Lewis-Clark is the best therapist I could ask for. She always listens and suggests really helpful strategies to help me manage symptoms. I’m so glad I decided to try therapy again
Nikki is very perceptive and understanding, she offers guidance at a pace that’s comfortable to me and has shown to be a valuable resource for me from the very start!
Will recommend the service
Nikki helped address our needs within a matter of months. She checks in often, and respected the confidence of her client, while meeting our concerns (of the parents). Checked in often and provided great support.
Ms. Nikki is the best personal counsellor I have been with. As a healthcare worker with diagnosis of ADHD, she gives me proper and effective advices how to navigate my work around my diagnosis. Also, she provides effective advises to navigate on self-esteem issues, relationship issues, and other wellbeing concepts (validation) to help you advance as a whole in life (career, relationship, entrepreneurial life, etc.)
Nikki is a perfect match for both my personality and my needs for therapy. She really understands my mindset and helps to guide me through the noise that can get in the way of my goals. I never feel that there is anything that I can't talk about and I know that she will always be there to help me whenever I need. Nikki is truly the support that I need.
I love Nikki, she’s the best therapist I’ve had!
Nikki is a consummate professional. She is sensitive, attentive and proactive. Never had a better therapy experience.
Nikki's innate ability to relate to you as a human being and to your individual circumstances is amazing. She's engaged and present. She makes me feel comfortable, accepted, understood and supported in every session and in between. Very fortunate and grateful to have found her....you will be too.
Working with Nikki is always an enrichment for my personal development. I feel very well supported by her and she has a wonderful ability to respond to personal needs.
Nikki is extremely knowledgeable, kind, and easy to talk to. I have had terrible experiences with therapists in the past that made me extremely hesitant to try again. Nikki has completely changed my view and I really appreciate her style and approach to therapy. She’s the best!
I arrived in a state of brokenness, but she has been instrumental in guiding me towards healing and wholeness. Dealing with the constant presence of my abuser, she skillfully teaches me how to navigate and cope with the profound mental, emotional, and physical abuse. As a man, she has empowered me to open up about my experiences without compromising my sense of masculinity. It is imperative for every man who undergoes similar hardships as mine to address them, and Nikki has been an unwavering source of support throughout my journey. I am sincerely grateful to have her by my side, and I wholeheartedly endorse her to anyone seeking assistance. Undoubtedly, Nikki is truly exceptional!
I went through a couple of different therapists before I found Nikki, and I was starting to feel like therapy wasn’t for me until I was matched with her. She has been exactly what I need: someone who is warm, patient, and pursues me every day to make sure I’m doing ok. She speaks from a place of empathy, but also knowledge and experience. For the first time, I dont dread therapy.
Nikki is great!
Nikki, has quickly helped shift our marriage and my individual life around; in a matter of (2) weeks. She’s an expert at what she does, she cares without getting in the box with you and she’s highly professional. Great asset to your organization!
Phenomenal
Nikki's really great. She's very friendly and really made me feel comfortable opening up about some really traumatic experiences I had. 10/10 would reccommend
My husband and I were very pleased with Dr. Nikki in many aspects. Both of us felt heard, were given tangible tips to help our situation on a daily basis, and she was very flexible with scheduling sessions. Would highly recommend
Great lady. Down to earth and relatable. Great therapist and lovely person.
I’ve been in therapy for many years. Nikki Lewis-Clark is my favorite therapist I’ve ever had. In my opinion and experience, she is the most helpful, caring, understanding, and knowledgeable therapist I’ve had. And in general she just has a great personality ! I love her so much and I’m very thankful for how much she has helped me learn and realize and grow. Even in just a couple of months. She understands how I like to learn and grow and she guides me in that way for every aspect of my life that I mention.
I've been talking to Nikki for some time now, and she's always managed to make me feel comfortable despite my awkwardness. She's given me some good tips and has helped me work through various issues. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking some support for their mental health.
Nikki is very kind and sweet. I am glad we are working over hard times in my life toagther!
I've only been talking to Nikki for two weeks going on three and she has helped me understand so much about my emotional responses. I don't think I would've ever figured everything out without her.
Thank you, Nikki.
Very attentive, compassionate and knowledgeable.
Nikki consistently checks in to understand how I am doing between sessions and I don't feel judged when trying to express my ideas and emotions even if how I explain them doesn't quite sound right. Very patient and reassuring
Nikki is wonderful and has listened to my concerns with care and empathy.
Excellent therapist. Really good questions, great resources, and a pleasure to talk to. I really appreciated our sessions.
I absolutely love Nikki! So listens to me rant all the time and really helps me understand why I’m feeling the way I am.
Nikki has a gift. She is intuitive, relatable, and has a multitude of thought provoking media/data to reinforce our conversations. I always leave our sessions feeling highly positive and well equipped to tackle whatever might come my way.
I’ve never felt more comfortable with a therapist. Extremely helpful in navigating addiction, relationships , and becoming an adult.
After years of falling on my face with other therapists I tried teen counseling. I was matched with Nikki and our first session she was able to surface adolescent trauma that was buried for over 20 years. She hold you accountable. She’ll never tell you what you want to hear, but what you need to hear. She will give you the tools and set healthy expectations for yourself in your healing process. I often think how I wish I had her assistance several years ago. She’s an absolute delight and her “bedside” manners are impeccable. I give her 1,000 out of 10.
Nikki has been a wonderful resource to help me work through my situations! She is able to get me to open my thinking and to put my priorities in order!!!
Easy to talk to and very responsive.
Nikki does a very good job.
I like my psychologist because she is sincere. She knows how to make the best of my therapy time. She cares about knowing me and she is consistent with what she says. She believes in my potential as a person. Thank you very much Nikki.
Nikki is over the top knowledgeable (in a good way) and offers the most help I could ever ask for. Highly recommend !
Nikki is great! She listens and understands my needs. She has given me tools to help get my anxiety under control. She has been a huge help in my journey!
Dr.nikki is amazing she helped me navigate through very difficult thoughts and situations
Nikki is an exceptional therapist. We are thoroughly pleased with our work with her thus far.
Very nice and listens. I feel comfortable talking and like her ability to talk well and give good advice and knowledge.
Nikki is an incredible human and therapist. She takes the time to understand my needs, listens, and responds directly to my concerns. She also takes the time to assess and understand if I want to discuss the problem or receive a solution. Her guidance and tools have encouraged me to work through my life's challenges in a grounded way.
Her compassion and persistence in encouraging me to follow through with therapy impresses me. We haven't actually had a session yet but she keeps checking in on me and encouraging me to do this, for me. I am impressed as the medical system is so broken now, no one gives a darn about the welfare of their patients anymore.

Nikki is great.
Love the way
Nikki supported me during my most turbulent time. She’s so compassionate and I always felt heard with her. She also sent me few interesting resources, and it helped me get insights into what’s going on in my head.
She was also open to discuss LGBTQI topics, and I appreciated that as well.
Nikki is an amazing and compassionate therapist, she helped me through some big life changes in teaching me how to stay grounded and how to be nicer to myself. She cares a lot and checks in through messages and she always knew just the right words to say. I would recommend her in a heartbeat!

Nikki had been extremely helpful in helping me navigate a very challenging period in my life. She is highly responsive and insightful. She is an excellent therapist.
Nikki helped me talk through a recent family situation that was causing me stress. She listened and it was good to talk with someone who had no bias or interest in the outcome. I'd recommend Nikki to others on this app.
Nikki is great! She has given me so many helpful strategies to use. I have really benefited from our sessions.

Nikki is amazing. She really understands you and meets you where you are. She is supportive, compassionate and intelligent. I love the work Nikki does with me.
Nikki has a knack for making you feel like a normal human being, but with hope, even after a hard session.
I am more than happy with the support I have received to date and I already have implemented changes to my routine that are helping me break out of the negative cycle I was in
Very pleased
