Hi, I’m Nicky! I’m a highly skilled, compassionate person focused counsellor who can support you to overcome your personal difficulties. I have gained over 13 years experience working with clients of all ages experiencing various mental health difficulties. Due to my friendly, empathic personality, it will provide you with the opportunity to feel relaxed and be open with me about your issues; this can feel less of a burden on yourself. We will work together to focus on your internal confusion/struggles helping you to learn to tolerate distress and regulate emotions.
I am an integrative therapist and I mainly draw from the principles of Person-Centred Counselling, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotion Focused Theory. I tailor my approach to each individual's needs.
My practice promotes well-being, recovery, personal growth and self-discovery.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
