Hello, my name is Stormi Nuckoles, (they/them), and I am a Resident-In-Counseling based in Harrisonburg, Virginia. I am currently practicing at Aurora Counseling under the supervision of Dr. Laura Copley, PhD, LPC. I graduated with my M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Eastern Mennonite University in 2025, and am working towards becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). 

​

I work with children, adolescents, and adults, and I am committed to supporting clients through a variety of concerns, including identity development, life transitions, embracing authenticity, self-acceptance, trauma, and grief. I have a particular passion for working with the LGBTQIA+ community and strive to provide a safe, affirming, and inclusive therapeutic environment.

​

As a clinician, I utilize a person-centered, integrated approach, meaning that I use different approaches to meet you where you are in your current experience, including how culture, society, and family dynamics shape those experiences. I often utilize expressive arts within the therapy space and incorporate psychodynamic, narrative, and acceptance and commitment therapy. 

​

I offer options for emotional support animal (ESA) letters, university accommodation due to mental health disability letters, and gender affirming surgery letters.

​

When I am not seeing clients, I am usually playing with my six guinea pigs, playing video games, painting, or reading.
