Life is full of thresholds, and stepping over them can bring more questions than answers. You may be navigating the loss of a loved one or a relationship, a midlife shift such as perimenopause or a lack of direction that’s hard to name. Perhaps something within you is changing but the people around you haven’t caught up. You may be noticing grief, anger, anxiety or simply a sense that something needs attention. This may include exploring your neurodivergent identity or the layered griefs of being childless not by choice. Therapy offers a steady space to explore what is happening within you and begin to find your way forward.

Are you navigating a period where life no longer feels familiar, after loss, separation, relocation, illness, or a major life transition? Perhaps you’ve been holding everything together for a long time, yet quietly feel unmoored, uncertain, or unlike yourself. You don’t have to face this period of change alone. I work with adults facing significant change who want a calm, thoughtful space to make sense of what has shifted. Many of the people I support are capable, reflective individuals who find themselves at an unexpected crossroads — grieving not only what has been lost, but questioning who they are now and how to move forward.

If you’re feeling stuck, anxious, or unsettled – or if something simply doesn’t feel quite right – you are in the right place. Many people experience a loss of purpose or struggle with low self-esteem. These feelings can be deeply challenging and isolating, often resulting in difficult emotions and, at times, thoughts of suicide. My role is to provide support and guidance, trusting that genuine change comes from accepting yourself rather than relying on willpower or self-criticism. This process allows you to move forward at your own pace, with compassion and understanding.

"There is a crack in everything - that's how the light gets in" (Leonard Cohen). I love this. We all have problems, things we don't like about ourselves, things we struggle with over and over. It's part of being human, none of us are completely 'sorted'. But sometimes we feel overwhelmed, desperate, alone.... the cracks are too big, the light isn't getting in. Or we feel stuck, frustrated, exhausted, going round in circles, nothing will ever change. Perhaps you feel you can't be the real you. Maybe you feel like this a lot, or maybe it's new for you and your usual coping/support isn't working. Maybe you don't know what's wrong.

I work with couples and individuals navigating painful, confusing, or overwhelming challenges in their sexual and relational lives. Many clients arrive carrying shame, anxiety, low self-esteem, or disconnection from themselves, their body, or their partner. Others come with specific concerns: sexual trauma, intimacy struggles, sex or porn addiction, arousal difficulties, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, or painful sex such as vaginismus or endometriosis. Together, we work toward a life where your body, your desires, and your relationships finally feel like they belong to you.

Counselling can be an opportunity to focus on yourself and bring change to your current situation. Therapy is a leap of faith that can result in growth and self-awareness. Times can be difficult, and navigating yourself through this can be the biggest challenge of all, but together, we can bring "You" into focus to work on what may be causing difficulties in your life. I work in a way that allows us to explore the initial issues and find further understanding of what is causing these under the surface.

Hey, I'm Nicole. I have a special interest in anxiety, and I'm here to support you if you're finding it hard to accept anxiety and everything that comes with it. You might be here feeling hopeful and ready to get going, or you might be feeling scared and unsure. Either way, that's okay! I’ll meet you where you’re at. Together, we’ll work on how to live with anxiety, not against it! I know it can be tough to sift through all the therapists out there, and it’s hard to know who’s the right fit. But if you’re here, you’ve already made the first move, and that’s something to be proud of.

You’re successful on paper, but inside you’re exhausted. Many women in leadership find themselves struggling with self doubt, an inner critic that never switches off, or the fear of being found out. Burnout and exhaustion can creep in when you’re expected to excel at work while also holding everything together at home. Past experiences of being overlooked or underestimated may resurface in the workplace, leaving you second guessing your voice or decisions. And the constant balancing act between ambition and wellbeing or resilience and vulnerability can leave you feeling depleted, stretched thin, and alone.

Bisexual Counsellors
What is bisexual-affirming therapy?
Bisexual-affirming therapy is a type of mental health support that fully affirms and reflects a client’s bisexual identity. It is rooted in acceptance and does not attempt to change or question an individual’s orientation. In this type of therapy, clients work with a therapist who understands the unique experiences of bisexual people. This support is especially important, as research shows that bisexual individuals face higher rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation compared to other groups. Bisexual-affirming therapy acknowledges that bisexual individuals may encounter specific stressors—such as invalidation, relationship challenges, and minority stress—that require specialised understanding and intervention. Many therapists also provide couples therapy for bisexual partners, helping them navigate relationship dynamics, communication challenges, or external stressors that may impact their relationship. While not required, some clients prefer working with bisexual therapists who may bring personal insight to the therapeutic relationship. However, a non-bisexual therapist with strong training and a genuine commitment to affirmation can be equally effective. The most important factor is finding a therapist who understands how identity impacts mental health and can create a space of trust and respect.

What can a bisexual therapist help with?
Bisexual-affirming therapists can provide support across a wide range of concerns relevant to bisexual individuals. Whether through personal or professional experience, they often have specialised knowledge in areas such as the coming out process, navigating stereotypes, and dealing with common stressors. Relationship support is another key area of focus, as bisexual clients may face unique challenge when dating or maintaining relationships across genders. Affirming therapists can also help clients build coping strategies for managing discrimination or stigma. Additionally, many bisexual-affirming therapists can connect clients to other providers or community-based resources—such as bisexual support groups or LGBTQ+ organisations—that offer additional affirming spaces for connection. It's important to note that therapists provide can talk therapy and counseling services but do not prescribe medication—if medication is needed for conditions like depression or anxiety, they will coordinate care with a psychiatrist or primary care physician who can provide psychiatric medication management alongside therapeutic support.

How do I find a bisexual therapist?
The Psychology Today online directory is a helpful tool for finding bisexual-affirming therapists. You can use search filters to identify therapists who specialise in LGBTQ+ care and work specifically with bisexual clients. You can also filter by clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, accepted insurance, session costs, and languages spoken to find the right fit. During initial consultations or early sessions, ask potential therapists about their specific training in bisexual-affirming care, their experience with LGBTQ+ clients, and their therapeutic approach to identity-related concerns. An effective bisexual-affirming therapist will demonstrate genuine understanding of bisexual experiences, including awareness of the unique challenges facing bisexual individuals. You can also look for credentials or continuing education in areas such as LGBTQ+ mental health, trauma-informed care, and intersectionality.
