counselling

My name is Nicki and I am a fully qualified and insured counsellor and psychotherapist who works with adults.  My training was with Chrysalis where I gained my qualifications and much experience.  My vast experience in life along with my training and experience in the therapeutic field allows me to use my skills and knowledge to support my clients.

My first qualification in the therapeutic field was in Hypnotherapy and Counselling skills which was completed in November 2016.  I opened my hypnotherapy practice within a couple of months and began my journey from there.  

I completed my Counselling Diploma in March 2018 and my Advanced Diploma in April 2019.

I continue to expand my knowledge and experience by attending regular CPD courses as well as monthly supervision.

I am a member of National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society, which means that I am bound by their code of ethics and I work within their boundaries. 

I am fully insured with Howden Insurance and am registered with the ICO and follow their strict rules with regards to confidentially. 

Online therapy is available across the UK.  Online therapy is exactly as it sounds. It's just the same as in-person therapy: the only thing that changes is the setting. Whether you want to alleviate your anxieties, work through your depression or simply become a better you, online therapy lets you access all the same coping mechanisms as you would in an in-person session.

50 minutes session £40. Payment by BACS to be made 24 hours before the time of the appointment.   I also hold a Certified in Online and Telephone Counselling. 

What I offer in a therapy session is an individual approach to each and every person. You will find that I am approachable, friendly, honest and open. I will offer you support and help you to support yourself. I will listen to you with an open mind without judgment in a relaxed atmosphere.  Through empathy and discussion, I will offer you the tools that you require to help you to move forwards in life, in your own time and support you with how you want to get there. My own life experience enables me to provide a real-life experience in therapy, through honesty, openness and the want for change.
