Hi and welcome to my page! I’m Nicola, an integrated counsellor which means I can apply a range of modalities to suit the clients individual needs. During therapy with myself, we will work together and develop an understanding of the areas clients wish to work on. We can face challenges together with empathy and patience.

Do you feel stuck? Struggle with addiction, anxiety, shame or overwhelm? Have experiences of abuse, sexual violence or unhealthy patterns in relationships? Do your past experiences impact on your wellbeing today? Do you need support establishing boundaries and healthy coping mechanisms? Counselling can help with all of these issues; I offer a safe space to explore your thoughts and feelings. Therapy helps to process and integrate the unresolved and unconscious aspects of yourself, so you can return to a sense of wholeness and wellbeing. It increases the control you have over your emotions and a sense of freedom in your own life.

Hello and a very warm welcome to you! We all experience times in our life when we feel stuck, overwhelmed, lacking in direction or purpose ... and it's at times like these when we might seek support in facing these challenges and making positive change. I thoroughly enjoy supporting individuals and groups through challenging periods. I have been in a supportive role for over 20 years, my passion is for people. I am a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist and work with a blend of evidence-based modalities.

Much of what has hurt us in life has happened in relationships with others. I know too, that relationships can also be a source of healing and that a therapeutic relationship can offer a chance to have a different experience of what relationships can be. I offer you a space to explore any issues that are important, or are of concern to you. My own experiences of life, and my personal journey and development, has given me an insight into myself and others that allows me to work in a compassionate and non-judgemental way

Throughout life we are presented with uncertainties and difficulties, some can be overwhelming and take a toll over our mental wellbeing, physical health and come in the way of being able to lead the meaningful lives we wish to have.

Psychotherapy is a rare invitation to truth - a place to explore your self and your story, make sense of why you feel the way you do and ask how you might meet life's challenges in a more authentic, meaningful and fulfilling way. My approach is integrative, creative and embodied. It considers who you are and what happened to you, as well as what your heart desires. As a relational therapist, I also put your experience with me in therapy at the heart of our work together.

Are you feeling disconnected from yourself and your relationship with others? Have you lost your sense of self?

Whether this is the first time you are seeking therapy or have had therapy before, reaching out can feel overwhelming as therapy itself can be challenging.
