I'm Nikki, a professionally trained and qualified Psychotherapeutic Counsellor offering therapy services to both adults and young people.

I offer sessions online via Zoom but also utilise outdoor sessions and 'walk and talk' therapy.

I work with clients with a range of issues including; stress and anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationships and grief.

I use a range of methods to support my clients including Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy but like to work in a way that suits the individual and their needs. This may involve looking at the how the issue makes the person feel in the 'here and now' or exploring past experiences that may effect current thinking and behaviour. 

I have specialist training in grief and loss through my work as a Bereavement Volunteer and Supervisor for Cruse Bereavement Care providing emotional support to anyone who has experienced loss through the death of a loved one. I am also a qualified hypnotherapist and find this tool of particular benefit when working with clients with issues such as anxiety, stress and phobias.

Additionally, I teach counselling skills at a Further Education College supporting students to gain their qualifications. I also teach on an Awareness of Mental Health course which I find links well with my counselling practice.
