In Person Counselling in Dorchester
I have been working in the NHS for over twenty years, alongside my independent practice. I have an Honours Degree in Psychology; a Masters Degree in Health Psychology and a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. Since qualifying I have trained further in Eye Movement and Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and compassion based approaches. I enjoy working with people with a range of difficulties across the spectrum of severity. I have a particular interest working with people recovering from trauma, or struggling with depression or anxiety.

Facing a challenging work presence. It can be hard to thrive or rise in a company if one is generous, caring for others, wanting to achieve a real difference in a competitive environment. The cost of honesty is clear and the rewards are often silently won.

Why choose me as your counsellor? Maybe because I always aim to put you rather than any specific approach at the centre of our work together. My priority is to build a trusting therapeutic relationship with you where you feel safe, heard and seen. In order to facilitate this, I use my personal life experience, my training and my experience of having worked with clients from diverse backgrounds and with a great variety of different issues. I endeavour to offer a safe, supportive and accepting environment where we can explore your feelings and work on the issues in question.

Life can be challenging; we may be faced with unexpected life events throwing us into crisis. We may want to enhance our quality of life and need clarity on how to do so. I work with you to gain insight into your emotional and psychological world in order to understand the roots of any difficulties. Knowing more deeply about yourself means you are then better able to develop different patterns of behaviour which restore and support your psychological health. I use various evidence-based approaches and interventions to help you make sense of your situation and provide you with an opportunity to discover a positive way forward.

Are you feeling that you need a supportive relationship to help with issues in your life? At different times in life we may feel overwhelmed, alone or stuck and it can help to talk in a non judgemental setting. You may be considering therapy for many reasons and the first step is to just make contact. This can bring feelings of nervousness but it can also be a very exciting moment. You can ask for the help and support you need. It’s very important that you feel completely comfortable with your counsellor, that they are a person you can share all of yourself with.

Our past need not define our future. If you feel stuck, unhappy and are struggling to change, I can help. When in life we encounter distressing experiences our whole focus may be on surviving them. We can form patterns of thoughts and behaviour which help us cope, but which often continue unnoticed into our later lives. When these patterns of behaviour and relating remain our defaults, they may become obstacles to our future wellbeing. I offer a safe means to explore your thoughts and behaviours, to identify those which are unhelpful and to change, leaving behind obsolete past beliefs and behaviours to live the life you choose.

How are you today? It can be difficult to really know or express what is happening for you. Life can feel complicated and scary at times and this can feel overwhelming.

What happens with our thoughts and emotions transfers to the body and vice versa. For an holistic approach to your well being I see you as a person not a set of issues. Anxiety, depression and Trauma affect the quality of life and our ability to live life to the fullest.

Hi, I'm Nicky. I can help if you are struggling with anxiety, stress, depression, relationship issues, or coming to terms with long-term health issues. If you find yourself fitting around everyone else's needs at the expense of your own or have not been able to move on from past experiences, or are overloaded then I can help you to turn things around. I offer a warm, safe, confidential space to talk and overcome the challenges you are facing, tune into your emotions, so they become your guide rather than overwhelm you. Most importantly build a new relationship with yourself and feel more confident and in control of your life.

When life gets tough we can find ourselves feeling stressed, anxious and overwhelmed. At these times talking to someone else can be helpful to make sense of what is going on. Perhaps you are experiencing loss or bereavement, or a significant transition in your home, work or relationships. Living with uncertainty and change can stir up uncomfortable feelings in us like anxiety, depression, anger or sadness. Whatever is going on for you, I can provide you with the time and space to think things through, and together we will work to make sense of what is going on and find a way forward.

Is life feeling overwhelming?...Are you feeling anxious or stuck in a rut? Sometimes life can feel tough, painful or confusing! At times we understand why these feelings have arisen such as through bereavement, family, relationship or work problems, but often we may ask: ‘Why am I feeling this way?’ Or we may just know that things are ‘not right’. These feelings will have a big impact on our relationships, work or ability to enjoy even the simplest things in life which can lead us to feel alone or isolated! Now is the time to stop struggling alone in the hope that things will get better on their own, and make a change!
