Counselling in CB22

I’m a Coaching Psychologist and Accredited Master Coach with over 17 years of experience in supporting clients to navigate their way through challenges and change. My approach is to walk alongside you and tailor support to your changing needs on your journey to define and achieve your chosen outcomes -

I am an experienced Integrative Counsellor. My primary training is in the Psychodynamic model and this is the basis of my work. I do adapt my style to meet the highly individual needs of each client. I aim to offer a safe and confidential space for clients to explore what has made life slip out of gear.

We are fully qualified Child & Adolescent Counsellors. We have a range of experience working with children therapeutically in primary & secondary schools and children's mental health charities. Our approach is child-centered and integrative; we draw on a variety of therapeutic techniques to meet the needs of each individual child. We aim to establish a good therapeutic relationship with each child and young person to enable them to express their feelings and emotions freely and to find better ways of coping with difficulties.

We all might experience difficult times in life; feeling complicated feelings and struggling to understand what is going on for you and why is a normal occurrence. Using my knowledge and extensive experience as a psychotherapist I provide a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space to explore your issues and reflect on your situation. A greater understanding of your internal world will enable you to gain insight into how you operate and understand yourself better. The therapeutic process will enable you to change your life and your relationships. I offer a safe space to faciliate the delicate journey of exploring.

Do you hear yourself telling everyone that you’re ‘fine’, but really you aren’t fine? Feelings of anxiety, panic and depression can get in the way of you living your best life. Are you having relationship, body image, school, college, or work issues? Do you feel you aren’t good enough? Maybe you’ve painful memories and have trouble sleeping. Perhaps you aren’t sure what it is making you feel like this. You may be feeling isolated, misunderstood and finding it difficult to share your problems with those around you. I believe that if you can begin to open up to me about what is going on for you, you’ll start to heal and feel better.

You are not alone. Whatever your difficulties may be, there is always a way forward. Therapy may be the right choice for you if you are looking to reduce distress, improve your wellbeing and achieve your goals. Clients who meet with me gain a greater understanding of their difficulties and develop the ability to overcome these. If you are feeling overwhelmed, find yourself unable to move away from unhelpful thoughts or memories, or just sense that things are not quite right, then please get in touch to discuss whether therapy could be of benefit to you.

If you are experiencing distressing symptoms in relation to ANY anxiety disorder - including phobias, PTSD, OCD and you want to make changes that liberate you so that you you can live the life that you would prefer then I can help. Sessions tend to last longer than the traditional hour (or in some cases 50 minutes) as I prefer to work without the time constraint and to give value for money.

I specialise in supporting adults (18+) to recover from anxiety disorders using CBT with ERP for OCD (e.g. panic disorder/panic attacks, agoraphobia and other phobias, social anxiety, generalised anxiety disorder, health anxiety, OCD, etc.), low self-esteem and low mood/depression.

You are struggling with difficult feelings which you may or may not understand or be able to explain. You may be feeling overwhelmed or out of control or unable to function as you always have before or you believe you 'should'. You are unhappy, depressed, anxious, having family or relationship issues, suffering from low self-esteem, body image or weight issues. You are addicted, abused, coping with loss, worried about getting old, lonely......

Are you experiencing low mood, depression, anxiety? Are you feeling tired or emotional for no reason, cannot keep up with life, have panic attacks, or struggling to deal with trauma? If so, I can help you. I work with people like you. I offer in person and online sessions. I also have experience of helping people who are having family problems, relationship difficulties, adjusting to life changes, bereavement, difficulties with anger expression, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) aiming to feel better and function well again.

I am an integrative Therapist with over 24 years of experience and an MA in Psychotherapy and counselling and am an accredited member of the BACP. I am passionate about the healing power of counselling, psychotherapy and the capacity of the human psyche to heal, develop and grow. This belief, coupled with my training and experience, underpins how I work with adults one-to-one. I can help with many areas of mental health and associated physical symptoms of: anxiety disorders, depression; underlying causes of emotional pain or distress. The process of counselling or psychotherapy can be life changing and enriching.

Psychotherapy is a very personal journey that will be unique to you. Are there changes that you would like to make in your life and your relationships? Are you wondering how you can make sense of the patterns that keep repeating in your life despite your best efforts?

I offer counselling in a safe, confidential environment for you to discuss any thoughts, feelings or behaviour that you are finding difficult. Together we can talk about what you are experiencing, giving you time to process your thoughts, feelings and emotions to identify the root causes, explore better ways of coping or to make changes. Recognising that we are all individual, with different experiences, I work using an integrative approach drawing on a range of skills and techniques to tailor my counselling sessions to meet your needs.

I have 25 years working in mental health. I use predominately CBT but also use elements of third wave therapies, which are therapies that have evolved from CBT. These include: Dialectical Behavioural Therapy; Acceptance and commitment therapy; Meta cognitive therapy; Compassionate based therapy; Mindfulness; General Meta Formulation. I am the creator and founder of the CBT approach called the General Meta Formulation. This is an approach that stems from a range of cognitive and Behavioural Approaches. It focuses on the beliefs that people have about their and others thoughts, emotions, behaviours and physiology.

Hi, my name is Nicola. Perhaps you are looking for a counsellor because you have been feeling unable to cope. Maybe you are experiencing loss, anxiety, depression, or you're feeling stuck or in crisis. Perhaps you would simply like someone to talk to who will listen and not judge. It can feel hard to manage on your own, but you don't have to. Counselling can support you to explore any difficulties you are facing with someone you trust and with whom you feel safe. I offer a warm and confidential space where you can feel heard and never judged, where a smile will always meet you and where you can bring whatever is on your mind.

As a clinical psychotherapist,​ I have over 10 year’s experience of working with patients and clients with many different struggles and difficulties. Trained as an integrative therapist, I work in a unique way that is based on your own individual needs. I believe that everyone is different and not every modality suits everyone. I know only too well how difficult life can be, yet uniquely different, we all suffer pain and loss in many similar ways. I feel truly humbled to work in this field and would be honoured to support you. You are not alone.
