Partnering to Support Your Patients Beyond Initial Weight Loss

Many patients taking GLP-1 or other weight-loss medications experience rapid changes in appetite and weight. While these medications can be an excellent jumpstart, sustaining the results requires new habits, emotional support, and attention to underlying factors. This is where Oasis Within Counseling can help.

Who I Am
I am Nicole Nielsen, M.Ed., a pre-licensed mental health counselor under the supervision of Tara Sullivan, LPC. With over 30 years in education, mental health, and integrative health coaching, I bring a unique perspective to counseling. Although I am trained as an integrative health coach, I am not currently offering coaching services. Instead, I draw on this background to provide comprehensive counseling that addresses mental, emotional, and lifestyle factors within my counseling scope.

How I Support Your Patients
• Counseling under supervision focused on sustaining weight-loss results
• Addressing emotional eating, body image changes, and stress management
• Guidance on sleep hygiene, motivation, and healthy routines
• Coordination with your office to align counseling goals with medical treatment plans
• Reduced fee sessions for accessible care while I complete my internship

Why Refer
• Patients receive ongoing behavioral and emotional support beyond the time you can provide in visits
• Improved long-term outcomes and satisfaction with their health journey
• A collaborative approach that keeps you informed of your patients’ progress (with consent)

How to Refer
Referring is simple. Email me at nicole@oasiswithincounseling.com or book a 15 minute call with me so that I can answer all of your questions. With patient consent, I can provide periodic updates about their progress and collaborate on their care plan.

Together we can help your patients sustain their health, strengthen their mental well-being, and integrate the results of medical treatment into their everyday lives.
