Sue Nicholls BA(Hons) Integrated Counselling MBACP Counsellor and Supervisor

Are you struggling with life at the moment and feel that you would you like some help? Are you suffering with anxiety, depression, low self esteem, panic attacks or grief?  Are you inundated with intrusive thoughts and finding everything overwhelming? Would you like to talk things over with someone? Someone who can listen without judging,  who can be completely neutral and help you to make your life a little better?

Please take a look at my details, both here and on my website and if you feel that I can help, then please get in touch, I would love to hear from you.  I began my own journey with counselling after understanding that I couldn't always talk to family or friends about my problems. Starting to realise that looking after myself was important allowed me to see that I could also enable others to do the same.

I can provide counselling on a one to one basis which is unique to your individual requirements. Together,  we can focus on your needs and work towards improving life for you. I may challenge the way you look at certain things and encourage you to see life in a different way, which may be difficult at times. Counselling is not always an easy option but the personal benefits can be life changing.

I am an integrative counsellor, which means that I can work in a variety of ways to suit each individual person. I like to encourage people to explore their issues and work towards a better understanding of themselves and the world around them. I like to create a sense of calm and safety within the counselling room to give you the ability to focus on whatever you need to work on.

I qualified as a counsellor in July 2013 having taken my Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, then went on to complete a BA (Hons) in Integrative Counselling.  Additionally I now have a Diploma in Supervision and in Couples Counselling (Marriage Guidance).

As well as my private practice, I am a Wellbeing Services Project Manager for Action East Devon. This is a charitable organisation which provides help and support services for vulnerable people.

I also provide counselling for an EAP (Employee Assistance Programme) to many of the various employers that they provide services for.

I am a fully insured registered member of the BACP (British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists) and abide by their ethical framework. The BACP Register is accredited by the Professional Standards Authority for Health and Social Care to provide extra assurance for clients; for more information about the BACP register please visit http://www.bacpregister.org.uk/.
