Nicole Sandoval, LMSW

Nicole Sandoval is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping individuals of all ages find balance, confidence, and clarity in their lives. She brings a compassionate and collaborative style to her work, grounded in evidence-based practice and trauma-informed care.

Nicole earned her Master of Social Work from Fordham University and her Bachelor of Social Work from Bridgewater State University. Her clinical experience includes supporting children, adolescents, and adults through both school-based and outpatient settings, addressing a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and developmental needs. As a school social worker, she has developed a strong understanding of how environmental, familial, and academic stressors can affect mental health across the lifespan.

Nicole’s therapeutic approach is warm, strengths-based, and highly individualized. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies to help clients manage anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, and stress, while building insight, emotional regulation, and practical coping skills. She is particularly passionate about supporting neurodivergent individuals, including those with ADHD and autism, and creating a safe, affirming space where clients feel understood and empowered.

At New Hope Therapeutic Services, Nicole provides virtual sessions for children, teens, young adults, and adults. Whether working with a child struggling with emotional regulation, a teenager navigating identity or academic pressure, or an adult seeking greater emotional balance and connection, Nicole meets each client where they are—with empathy, curiosity, and a deep respect for their unique story.

Outside of her clinical work, Nicole enjoys spending time with family, exploring the outdoors with her dog, and connecting with her coastal roots on Nantucket.
