About me

Hello, I’m Nikki. If you’re reading this, you’ve already taken a brave first step toward getting support. Reaching out isn’t easy, and I want to acknowledge the courage it takes to explore therapy.

Life can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re carrying experiences or emotions that are too heavy to manage alone. Whether you’re struggling with something recent or something that has been affecting you for years, I’m here to help you make sense of what you’re going through and find a way forward.

You may be feeling stuck, low, or lost in the noise. Together, we can gently sift through it all: the thoughts in your head, the worries in your belly, and the fear of the unknown. You don’t have to carry it alone.

I’m a qualified counsellor with over 11 years of experience, including volunteering with Mind Charity, private practice, Employee Assistance Program work, social services, and legal settings—totalling more than 4,600 counselling hours. My approach uses a blend of person‑centred therapy, solution‑focused work, CBT, trauma‑focused approaches and the Rewind Technique, shaped by both professional training and personal experience of trauma and chronic pain.

I support children aged 11+ through to adults facing a wide range of challenges, including:

Trauma, PTSD, and complex grief
Anxiety
Anger management
Chronic pain and invisible disabilities
ADHD, Autism, Tourette’s, Dyslexia
Bullying, domestic violence, and abuse
Life transitions, family issues, diagnosis adjustment, newly diagnosed, and bereavement
Whether you’re mourning the person you used to be, struggling to manage anxiety, or feeling stuck after a traumatic event, I offer a space where you can be truly heard—without judgment. Together, we’ll work at your pace to process the past and focus on your present needs.

I also support clients navigating relationship breakdowns—including the pain of betrayal, cheating, and the loss of trust. These experiences can leave you questioning everything: your worth, your instincts, even your sense of reality. Whether you’re reeling from a recent discovery or trying to rebuild after separation, I offer a space where you can process what’s happened, explore what it means for you, and begin to heal. You don’t have to face it alone, and you don’t have to rush your recovery. We’ll work together to help you find clarity, strength, and a way forward that honours your experience.

I offer one‑off or ongoing sessions in person in and around Northamptonshire, or via Zoom or phone throughout the UK.

You can also reach out for a callback via phone, text, or email. If you don’t hear back within 24 hours, please check your spam folder.

I run set up Bring 2gether CIC, trauma and PTSD support groups,  both online and in‑person spaces for group healing, we are looking at setting up 2 other areas in Northamptonshire.

If you care for others, ask yourself—who’s caring for you?

Let’s talk when you’re ready.

I listen so you feel heard.

Further information

Firstly I would like to say, well done for taking the first step of looking for a counsellor.

The next step is to email, text or call me to talk about what it is you are looking for in counselling and we can take it from there. I'm not scary honest.

In the first counselling session, you will be able to see if we can work together and if I am the right counsellor that can help you work through what brought you here.

I adhere to the NCPS code of ethics and principles for good practice and am a registered member.

I have 3 lots of supervision and 2 peer support and maintain my high standard of counselling for all the areas I Cover.

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
