Dr. Nikol Garcia, LCSW, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the founder of Sonderwell. She began her career working in higher education and hospice care, where she supported individuals facing profound life transitions, grief, and challenges of identity and adjustment. These experiences shaped her passion for helping people feel seen, supported, and empowered in difficult moments. Dr. Garcia specializes in working with college students, mothers navigating postpartum and pregnancy, and individuals seeking to strengthen self-esteem, process grief, or improve relationships. She incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and mindfulness-based approaches to provide practical tools for healing and growth. Her goal is to create a warm, culturally responsive, and collaborative space where clients can find relief, build resilience, and move toward meaningful change in their lives.
