About

NST Counseling on Coronado Island operates from 138 B Avenue under California LCSW license 65904, with clinical social worker Nicole S. Turville specializing in anxiety disorders, women's health issues, and addiction recovery. Her treatment framework integrates insight-oriented psychotherapy with evidence-based interventions for OCD, social anxiety, generalized anxiety, and trauma-related conditions — a body-aware clinical lens that aligns with the somatic bodywork modalities at The Therapy Element on the island. Women's issues form a core practice pillar, covering postpartum stress, sexual-trauma recovery, and eating and body-image concerns through protocols informed by her externship in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy at the International Psychotherapy Institute. Addiction and substance-abuse counseling draws on crisis-intervention training from Valley Mental Health and the University Neuropsychiatric Institute, plus volunteer fieldwork with the American Red Cross. Clients in addiction recovery benefit from structured physical outlets, and the group-training format at F45 Training Coronado provides the kind of scheduled, high-accountability exercise environment that supports substance-free routine building. Highest-tier cases involve concurrent anxiety-disorder treatment and substance-dependency protocols running parallel ERP and motivational-interviewing tracks within a single clinical framework.
