About Nicole
Nicole Woolery is an independently licensed social worker in Ohio with 14 years of clinical experience. She helps people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, grief, parenting strains, and relationship or family problems. She uses straightforward, practical methods and listens without judgment.
Her work blends calm, focused conversations with tools people can try between sessions. She leans on acceptance and commitment techniques, cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.
How Nicole works
Sessions are collaborative and geared to the person’s daily life and goals. Nicole’s background includes hospital, community, office, and school-based roles. Early in her career she worked in inner-city schools and with at-risk youth.
She later provided psychosocial assessments and group therapy in hospital settings before opening a independent practice in 2015. She draws on a strength-based, solution-focused outlook and tailors care to each person. That can mean learning practical skills for managing worry, building routines to ease mood swings, or practicing mindful awareness for stress relief.
She can also incorporate a Christian-based perspective when requested. Nicole aims to help people identify values, reduce unhelpful thinking, and take small steps toward a more meaningful life. Her style is direct, compassionate, and goal-oriented.
She supports clients who are ready to make changes and wants to help them move forward.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify what matters most, and take small actions that match those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and finding motivation when life feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaching simple strategies to change them, which can help with anxiety, mood, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person’s experience, offering a nonjudgmental space where the therapist reflects and supports the client's own problem-solving and growth.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Nicole will collaborate with each person to try methods that fit their goals and preferences, adjusting strategies if something isn’t helping. That collaborative process helps match techniques like ACT or CBT to real-life needs rather than using a fixed plan.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and suit a quick check-in, and chat or messaging can be useful for brief updates or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines and to continue care from different locations.
