More about Nicola

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • NCPS

Hello, I’m Nicola, a qualified integrative counsellor based in the United Kingdom. I have over five years experience supporting clients through grief, loss, and trauma, as well as those coping with abuse, life changes, stress, anxiety or living with neurodiversity.

I offer a calm, compassionate space for anyone struggling with emotional distress, relationship difficulties, low mood, anxiety or a general sense of feeling lost or overwhelmed.

My approach is rooted in the understanding that healing is not linear, it’s a deeply personal journey that unfolds in its own time and in its own unique way.

You may be navigating change, facing relationship challenges or carrying the impact of past experiences. Whatever brings you here, I provide a safe and supportive space where all your emotions are welcome. As an integrative counsellor, I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to meet your individual needs. My practice is trauma-informed and neurodiversity-affirming; with an emphasis on safety, autonomy and respect for the many ways people experience and make sense of the world.

At the heart of my work is the belief that being truly heard with empathy, warmth and non-judgment can be a powerful catalyst for healing and self-understanding. I believe you are the expert of your own story and that you already hold many strengths that can help you overcome the challenges you face.

Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage and I would be honoured to walk alongside you on your healing journey, holding space for your reflections, growth, and change at a pace that feels right for you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
