Are you struggling with managing life stressors? Do you struggle with anxiety or depression? Are you queer, and/or do you live your life “alternatively” from the status quo? Do you just need someone to talk to? If so, then welcome! I am Nyx Hoskins, a licensed therapist with a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and find resilience within themselves. With 4 years of experience in the field as well as lived experience, I am committed to providing a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions and embark on a journey of self-discovery. I view therapy as a partnership where we work together to explore, understand, and overcome obstacles. My goal is to create a safe space where clients can express themselves authentically, fostering self-discovery and positive change.
I hold a bachelor’s degree in social work from Northern Kentucky University and am a licensed social worker in Ohio. Additionally, I am DBT and CBT informed and have taken training on bystander intervention and crisis intervention. My therapeutic approach is rooted in client-centered therapy, which rejects the idea that therapists are the authority on one’s inner experiences. I primarily utilize “talk therapy” and focus heavily on personal experiences, providing psychoeducation, and learning coping skills.
I offer individual therapy sessions for adults aged 18-45. I specialize in working with individuals facing challenges such as questioning gender identity and sexuality, anxiety and depression, managing life stressors, ADHD, and “alternative lifestyles” such as polyamory, ethical non-monogamy, and kink drawing on evidence-based practices to promote healing and personal growth.
I am non-binary and queer, and my pronouns are she/they. When I’m not working you can usually find me obsessing over my cats, riding horses, playing with rocks, making art, reading, playing video games, or spending time with my partner. My gender identity has been described as a mixture of a forest fairy, an emo teen, and a raccoon.
I look forward to the opportunity to get to know you!
