Nicole Stone, LMFT
Raleigh, NC
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 10 years of experience supporting couples and relationships. I view mental health through the lens of connection and work with partners to improve relationship health, navigate high conflict, and recover from affairs. I welcome all couples, whether in traditional or non-traditional relationships. My goal is to help couples access their own strengths, embrace change, and build stronger, more connected relationships.
