Hello my name is Nicola, thank you for taking time to look at my profile. I provide good quality, professional counselling. A safe space where confidentiality is integral to my work. I aim to build a relationship which is empathic, compassionate and clear.
My practice is integrative counselling, working with the local community counselling people with anxiety, depression, trauma, bereavement, , childhood abuse, domestic violence, relationship issues, among a number of issues. I have experience of working with the impact of childhood abuse, sexual abuse and domestic violence. Many years of working within the field of care and social work brings with it an understanding and empathy with my clients. My qualifications as a social worker, counsellor, and nursery nurse contribute to the skills I bring to support you. I have a BA Hons in Applied Social Studies and am a BACP individual member working under their code of ethics, values and principles.
Talking to a counsellor is different to talking to a friend. A counsellor is impartial and non judgemental. You will have space to talk at your pace, there is no pressure and if you find it difficult to talk we can find ways around this which will help you feel more comfortable. Many people say I don't know where to start, I can help you sort out your thoughts and put them into an understandable order.
It is a difficult decision choosing which counsellor is right for you. Your first session will enable you to decide whether we will work together. You can be assured of a commitment from me within our working relationship. We will arrange appointments at a time to suit you. You will be in a safe, warm, confidential space which you can talk.

Testimonials
"Since working with Nicola I have come off my anxiety meds, I can look at my life with a different perspective, I am more positive" Anon
"I felt at ease, gave me things to think about before the next session and work on, motivated me to get things done which may be causing me stress, helped with confidence. An hour seems to go so quick which is a good thing because I am encouraged to talk and I am getting my feelings out" Anon
"Being able to tell you things that have bothered me for many years, the difference it's made is unbelievable. Also being told certain things are not my fault, family and friends always say that but to hear it from Nicola was more helpful than I could ever of imagined. Nicola is so easy to talk to doesn't judge. For the first time in years my head isn't full of negative thoughts. Thank you" TH
"This (counselling) has been my sanctuary" SH
'Nicola was really good at listening and didn't interrupt much, which I found better compared to a lot of other counsellors I've been to who don't just let me rant - which is kind of the whole point of paying money to speak to someone. She also managed to backtrack into my childhood without being condescending or going off topic, which was really good. All of her advice just genuinely felt really relevant. Actually felt like I was getting a personal delivery of service' CS
