Have you tried counselling before, and found the counsellor just kept saying 'and how did you feel about that'? Or the opposite - been given too many heavy-lifting thought-managing strategies that don't address the problem at its core? Try one 'Journey of Life' session for free (limited availability) and provide feedback on how you find the approach.
Hi, I'm Nicky Linton and If you are struggling and would like therapy using proven methods in a safe space, I'd love to hear from you. I'm a Masters qualified Counsellor working with Individuals and Couples. I specialise in Anxiety (of all kinds), Depression, Self-Esteem, Communication and Relationships, as well as Trauma, Grief and Loss. I think you may be suprised by what you discover about yourself within our sessions. I use a gentle approach that honours my clients and their experiences and together we tackle the problems you want to deal with.

Anxious thoughts permeate through so many areas of our life including our self-esteem.
We have all been in situations that we wish were different. We want someone who listens respectfully, to support and encourage us to get through this situation stronger and to be proud of who we are. It can be reassuring to work with a professional therapist to help clarify our thoughts, who will provide tools to manage concerns and assist in putting a life plan in to action.

Are you curious about starting therapy but feel like it's all too overwhelming? It took me years to gather myself and find support, and then I wished I did it sooner! No matter how long taking that first step has been on your mind, I'm here and I'm eager to hear you out. Whether it is major life challenges, unresolved feelings from the past or anxieties facing into your future, I'm your sounding board backed with accredited training and experience. I also have a male Wellness Coach working in my practice who is fluent in Tamil and has working proficiency in Malayalam and Hindi who can assist with general wellness concerns.

My coaching and mentoring approach is to help you quickly access your own inner wisdom, so that you can have more clarity about your own core values, needs, desires, life choices & judgement.
I provide schema coaching to fellow therapists and parents who want to focus on their own wellbeing and emotional health. I explore the lifelong schemas that cause stress at home and work: unrelenting standards, self-sacrifice, emotional deprivation, subjugation and approval-seeking. My clients come with a feeling of imbalance, wondering if they must sacrifice their own joy, mood and energy in order to succeed in their careers & relationships. I enjoy guiding my clients back to their true self, by being kind to themselves, and learning how to tolerate short-term guilt and interpersonal tension to achieve lasting contentment.

Accepting new clients! I believe passionately in being flexible, tailoring sessions, supporting personal development, growth, and insight with evidence based practices. My work is informed by mindfulness, attachment theory, schema therapy, family systems theory, and science. High achievers can appear to be fine on the outside but harbour problems on the inside that they know are impacting their personal lives. Therapy is a safe space to address subtle, chronic, and even complex mental health concerns. Many clients can recognise patterns in their mental health.

Modern life presents us with enormous challenges: in our work, our relationships and within ourselves. We are strong and capable beings, yet sometimes we can become overwhelmed, feel that we have lost our way, lost our sense of purpose and lost control. We need guidance and support; someone that we can talk to; someone that will listen; someone that will help us get back on track. We may need help with relationships, as couples or individuals; coping with anxiety, stress or depression at home or in the workplace; self-esteem and assertiveness; anger management, life coaching and mentoring.

I understand life's pitfalls having lived through many of them myself.
I've helped many people see their lives more clearly and be the person they want to be. What would you like to change? Is there something you feel is holding you back but you just can't figure out what or why? Sometimes you might just want someone to talk to that isn't a friend or family member to give you an independent insight to a problem. Whatever you are looking for, I can help you reframe what isn't working and give you a different perspective.
