Nicola Woods (She/Her)

Approach Description: My approach is humanistic and integrative. I work in a mindful, embodied and relational way, drawing on my core training in Mindfulness-based psychotherapy, psychodynamic therapy, parts work and EMDR therapy. We will pay attention to your thoughts, feelings, and body sensations without judgement, bringing present moment awareness to the coping mechanisms and relational patterns that may have once kept you safe as a little one but are now a getting in the way of you living your life fully. I work with a variety of clients and will tailor my approach according to the needs of you, the client. I work with clients who experience a variety of issues such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, C-PTSD, addiction and substance abuse, chronic pain and fatigue, overwhelming feelings of shame, anger, sadness and loneliness, imposter syndrome, to having a strong inner critic and tendency to people please, loss and bereavement.
