My broad experience with several different therapeutic approaches in relationship and sex therapy, as well as my solid foudation of psychotherapist training enable me to tailor counseling to your needs and goals. Contact me today and start changing things in your life.

I am Nicola Woods, a qualified and accredited Mindfulness-based psychotherapist, EMDR therapist and a Transformational and Leadership Coach, providing weekly online sessions. I am passionate about the power of therapy in helping us reconnect with our true authentic selves, by developing greater self-awareness, compassion and acceptance. As your therapist I will meet you where you are, with kindness, compassion, and non-judgement. We will work together to unpack and transform the relational patterns and beliefs that might be getting in the way of you living your life fully and authentically.

I’ve been in practise since 2016 and feel very blessed having had the opportunity to help so many people on their healing journey. My first focus is always in creating a safe space; one of understanding, compassion and openness. Anyone attending therapy needs to feel safe, secure, and seen and understood by their therapist. Though there’s a lot more that I do in my work with people than above, it’s those foundations - the relationship between therapist and clients - that everything else we do is built from. You will get 100% from me, as well as a dedication to continual learning and exploring, refining already known approaches, as well as adding in new tools and techniques. I know therapy can be a nervous thing to first try, but I’m sure in saying that I will put anyone at ease very quickly, and that anyway that sticks with therapy - and feels safe and heard by myself - will experience change that is hard to almost hard to believe until it starts to happen. I look forward to meeting you

Dublin has transformed rapidly from a relatively insular city into a major European technology hub — home to the European headquarters of Google, Meta, and many other multinationals — generating significant demand for therapists experienced with burnout, imposter syndrome, and the psychological cost of high-performance corporate environments. The city's severe housing crisis is a defining source of anxiety for many residents, particularly younger people who grew up in Dublin but struggle to remain there affordably. Ireland's historically complex relationship with institutional religion means many clients seek therapists who can hold nuanced conversations about religious trauma, inherited values, and personal identity. The national public health service (HSE) provides limited psychotherapy access, and most Dublin therapy takes place through private practice or employer assistance programs.
