About this Gig

As a psychologist, I'll provide an in-depth look at your characters and the world around them, at how they interact with their world through the lens of their identity.


As a sensitivity reader, I'll make sure to identify and comment on out-dated views, stereotypes, inaccurate facts or tropes. I'll provide feedback about these and suggestions on how to improve them without letting go of tension and plot twists.


I can provide a sensitivity read for:


-mental health

-psychological or psychiatric disorders

-personality disorders: narcissism, psychopathy, "sociopathy," antisocial personality disorder, sadism

-Jewish characters and Jewish culture

-British characters and British culture

-different sexual or gender identities, LGBTQ+

-minorities and marginalized communities

-children and child psychology

-criminals and criminology

-women's issues

-class issues - poor, working, middle and upper class


If you wish to know if your characters make sense from the psychological point of view, I can take a look at your manuscript and tell you where you can use artistic license and where it's best to be closer to reality, to the way people are and interact.

    Nicole was very thorough and helpful. She provided comments throughout the manuscript as if evaluating the characters, and this helped me see her thought process as the story went along. Her summary in the end made a lot of sense, and she eased my worries about misrepresenting my character's mental health struggles.
