Nicole Wood, Practicum
Hello! My name is Nicole, and I’m a Master of Social Work practicum student currently completing my clinical training at Kinder Mind. I’m passionate about creating a safe, supportive space where individuals can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences at their own pace.
My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, collaboration, and respect for each person’s unique journey. I strive to meet clients where they are, drawing from evidence-based practices while being mindful of each person’s cultural background, strengths, and goals. I’m particularly interested in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and stress.
As a practicum student, I bring a fresh perspective, a strong commitment to ethical care, and a deep desire to learn and grow alongside my clients. I’m honored to be part of your healing journey and look forward to supporting you through this chapter of your life.
