My name is Nicky. I am a BACP registered counsellor here in the UK. I have been in practice since 2015, graduating with a Bachelors degree. I have worked with a variety of mental health organisations as well as in my own private practice. While I have experience in a wide range of presenting issues I am particularly adept in working with depression, anxiety, body image, negative self talk, grief and loss, BPD and relationship issues. I’ve helped those who have suffered trauma and abuse both past and present find healing.
My primary therapy orientation is person-centered, my practice is built on the core conditions of empathy, unconditional positive regard and congruence, however I will integrate other modalities such as cognitive behavioural therapy, compassion focused and mindfulness when appropriate. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is paramount for client growth. I understand each person is an individual and tailor my therapy to meet the needs of each client to give an authentic experience. I believe we all have the innate ability to self-heal when provided with empathy, compassion and a safe space to explore our innermost thoughts and feelings. My practice is aimed at promoting personal development and self-esteem while reducing the symptoms of trauma, anxiety and depression. I strive to empower my clients to develop their intuition and expand their awareness so they may gain greater acceptance of self, reduce emotional distress and live fuller more rewarding lives.
I recognise the courage it takes to seek counselling and commend you in taking the first step towards change.
I look forward to working with you.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
