Nikolai Blinow

Nikolai Blinow is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and founder of OMpowerment Psychotherapy, a space for practical, real-life mindfulness and intentional living. She uses her training in interpersonal communications, mental health counseling, yoga, motivational interviewing, and dialectical behavioral therapy to create a truly integrative and collaborative style focused on getting you out of your own way.

Nikolai's clients tend to be driven, empathic, and highly-sensitive professionals, who catch themselves in patterns of giving 150% and then feeling overwhelmed, burnt-out, and anxious. People who enjoy working with Nikolai don't just want to talk about their problems . . . they want accountability and a game-plan for overcoming them. At the same time, clients who enlist Nikolai know that slowing down is also required, and are seeking a therapist who can help them strike the balance between peacefulness and productivity.

Nikolai finds that she works best with clients who are eager to receive feedback and want to be "compassionately called out." If you want to come to therapy once a week just to vent, then her space probably isn't for you! At Nikolai's practice, clients are constantly finding the "sweet spot" between self-acceptance and personal growth.

Nikolai also provides career + life coaching for Empathic Entrepreneurs and Highly Sensitive Women in Business, who find themselves feeling undervalued, overworked, and unfulfilled in their professions.

With Coaching, Nikolai can help you answer the following:

❓ How can I be successful, and still have balance?

❓ Am I ready for a career change?

❓ Why do I feel so burnt-out?

❓ Is my current role the right fit for me?

Note: Nikolai has a therapy dog in-training named Karma, pictured above, who is present in the office during in-person sessions, which take place on Mondays and Tuesdays. You may want to consider this before scheduling a consultation.
