Hi, my name is Nicola. I am 52 yrs old & a qualified MBACP Accredited Counsellor/Psychotherapist.
If you have arrived at a time in your life when you are considering Counselling, it is likely that you may be experiencing some kind of problem, emotional difficulty or life changing situation.
You may be feeling lost, isolated, stuck, lacking in self confidence/self esteem, or feeling that you are back where you started, going around in cirles.
It could be relationship issues, emotional challenges such as depression or anxiety or simply that you have reached a point where everything feels overwhelming & just too much.
Whatever your particular issue might be, Psychotherapy & Counselling can help
I offer a confidential Counselling/Psychotherapy service in Staffordshire, working from my practice on Cannock Chase.
My approach is humanistic & integrative. I work in a way that suits the needs of my clients, different issues may require alternative ways of working, but our sessions together remain client led from the beginning.
I work with adults; sessions can be booked weekly, or fortnightly.
My working hours are 8.00am-5.00pm weekdays only.
Sessions take place in a private ground floor room, in a quiet rural setting.
If you require any further information please do not hesitate to call me for a strictly no obligation friendly chat.

Member organisations
Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
Accredited register membership
Accredited Register Scheme
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
