About Dr.
Dr. Nicole Adams is a trauma psychologist with 16 years of clinical experience specializing in complex PTSD, military mental health, and grief following traumatic loss. She completed her doctoral training at Boston University under the supervision of Dr. David Barlow and spent four years as a staff psychologist at the VA Boston Healthcare System treating veterans with combat-related PTSD.
Dr. Adams is a certified EMDR therapist and CPT (Cognitive Processing Therapy) trainer. She has published extensively in the Journal of Traumatic Stress and has testified before Congressional committees on mental health access for military families. Her research on TRICARE coverage gaps and VA telehealth expansion has directly informed federal mental health policy discussions.
At EmoraPath, Dr. Adams leads clinical review for all PTSD, trauma, grief, and military mental health content — drawing on both her research expertise and her years of direct work with trauma survivors.
Clinical Approach
Dr. Adams uses trauma-focused CBT, EMDR, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) — the two most evidence-supported PTSD treatments — alongside compassion-focused approaches that honor survivors' experiences.
