Welcome to The Nest
A nest is not perfect, and it is never built all at once. It is created slowly, piece by piece, through care, resilience, and repair. Healing happens when people are given safety, support, and space to rebuild.

Our Expertise
The Nest Collaborative LLC was founded by wife duo Nikki and Dr. Tina Valila. Together they bring over 30 years of experience in the human service field, 20 of those in anti-trafficking work. Throughout their careers, Nikki and Tina have supported both youth and adults navigating complex trauma, systemic barriers, and intersecting needs with care that is both compassionate and practical.
Their other professional work span the nonprofit, government, and city sectors, giving a broad and nuanced understanding of the systems that impact individuals and communities. In addition to direct clinical work, both bring experience in training, program development, and clinical oversight, allowing for support not only to individuals but also the teams and organizations that serve them.
Areas of specialization include substance use with a focus on harm reduction and co-response models, sexual trauma, domestic violence, LGBTQ+ communities, and navigating legal systems. Their unique approach incorporates both traditional trauma-informed clinical practice while folding in their own experiences and knowledge.
The Nest Collaborative was created out of a shared commitment to creating spaces that are both clinically sound and deeply human with the hope that they offer safety, support, and the conditions needed for growth.

Rates & Policies
Individual Counseling
The Nest Collaborative operates as a private pay practice. Session fees are dependent on clinical complexity and level of risk. This model allows us to offer a more individualized, concierge-style experience with increased clinical access, flexibility, and continuity of care. Because of this structure, clients receive a higher level of direct support, responsiveness, and personalized attention than is typically available in standard care settings. Our focus is on providing thoughtful, consistent, and high-touch care that aligns with each person’s needs and stage of readiness.
Consulting and Training
Consultation services are available at an hourly rate. We also offer customized packages designed to meet the specific needs of individuals, teams, and organizations. Package pricing varies based on scope, goals, and level of engagement, and is developed collaboratively to ensure alignment with your priorities and desired outcomes.
