Nicole Summers-DuBois , LMFT

Nicole Summers-DuBois is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Massachusetts who combines professional training with extensive life experience to support individuals, couples, teens, and families. She completed her master’s degree as a non-traditional student at age 50 and brings a relatable perspective to clinical work, having built resilience and practical skills outside of traditional career pathways.

With five years of clinical experience, Nicole focuses on helping families strengthen communication, learn de-escalation techniques, and navigate relationship challenges. She also supports people coping with depression, anxiety, and life transitions by teaching concrete coping skills and strategies. Her background includes several years working with teenagers, where she applies developmentally attuned approaches to address behavior, mood, and family dynamics.

Nicole practices with an eclectic style and integrates warmth and gentle humor into sessions so that therapy feels approachable and conversational. She emphasizes respect and the importance of being heard, and she understands how difficult it can be to ask for help because she has been through that process herself. Her goal is to make each session feel useful and accessible while collaborating with clients to meet their goals.
