About Nicole Burton, MSWi (She/Her)

Hi, I’m a clinical social work student at the University of Utah, currently completing my MSW through the advanced standing program. I earned my BSW from Weber State University, with a minor in psychology, and bring both academic knowledge and real-life experience into my work with clients.

I specialize in working with individuals who may feel overwhelmed, unseen, or unsupported, especially neurodivergent individuals (ASD, ADHD, OCD), parents and caregivers, children and families, and those managing chronic illness or mental health challenges. I’m particularly passionate about supporting mothers and pregnant individuals who are struggling with their mental health or navigating major life transitions.

My therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and practical. I use a foundation of DBT and CBT to help clients build insight and coping skills, while also drawing from IFS and parts work to support deeper healing. I will be EMDR-trained in the fall of 2025, which will further expand my ability to help clients process trauma and feel more in control of their lives.

I understand how easy it is to lose parts of yourself when life feels heavy, and how hard it can be to find your way back. My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths, your identity, and your voice. I believe that healing happens in connection, and I aim to create a safe, empowering space where you feel fully seen and supported.

I’m especially driven to help neurodivergent individuals thrive in a world that often misunderstands them. With both professional insight and lived experience, I work to offer guidance, validation, and practical tools to overcome barriers and build a life that truly fits you.

Outside of the therapy room, I love hiking to waterfalls, reading romance and fantasy novels, crocheting, kayaking, and spending time with my family. I also find joy in writing poetry, exploring art, and learning new things about the human experience.

Let’s work together to help you reclaim your story, heal what hurts, and build the life you deserve.
