About Niki
Niki Mullis is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, and self-esteem challenges. She also supports people who are coping with life changes and looking for greater confidence or motivation. Her approach is respectful and down-to-earth.
Niki uses practical conversation to understand what matters most to each person. She listens for patterns in relationships and family history that affect current struggles.
How Niki works
Sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings to build small wins. Her work draws on attachment ideas to look at how early bonds shape adult connections. She also uses cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors.
When trauma memories come up, she can incorporate EMDR techniques as one option. Niki aims to make therapy collaborative. She tailors the pace and methods to each person rather than following a fixed plan.
That can mean shorter skills-focused sessions or deeper conversations about values and life purpose. With six years of experience and an NC LMFT credential, she practices in North Carolina and conducts sessions in English. Her style is warm and practical, meant to help people regain confidence and clearer direction in day-to-day life.

How her approaches translate to online care
Niki often draws on attachment-based work to explore how early bonds affect current relationships. That approach looks at patterns in connection and helps people build more supported ways of relating to others. It can be useful for intimacy, commitment, and communication concerns.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps people test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood. These strategies are easy to practice between sessions and track over time.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods as progress is made. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools to use and when to try different techniques.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let people share brief updates or work through feelings between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
