Nickelle Cooper, MS, SPED

​

About: My goal is to help families and adolescents navigate through difficult times.  It is through my own personal experiences as well as my career that made me more qualified to work with trouble adolescents/at risk.  In doing so, I am equipped to support in times of distress.  I pride myself on being a passionate, empathic and a resourceful individual.  I often use assessment along with conversation to help guide my practices.   I believe it is my responsibility to bring a sense of calm and hope to families and to not give up when they feel hopeless. We got this!
