More about Nicola
- 4 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am a qualified therapist with experience supporting people to work through and manage mild to moderate mental health concerns. I work with adults over 18 in the UK only. I have both lived and clinical experience in helping clients with a variety of concerns, including stress and anxiety, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, self esteem, and confidence.
I am trained as an Integrative Therapist, this means I am trained to work in a way that encompasses many methods and theories, the only important one is what is working at the time for you. This flexibility is useful when clients feel stuck or if they have had counselling before but it didn’t help and they don’t know why. I see part of our work together is finding out what works for you and exploring what that unlocks for each client.
I also see that most clients come to therapy because a change is needed – something isn’t right or something is missing from their life and it’s at a point where its not sustainable anymore. To this end, I approach our sessions with curiosity and challenge, so that we can understand what it is that can change and what are the steps that need to be take to get there. I also believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. One we uncover those steps, taking them takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

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.
