More about Nicola

- BACP
I am a fully qualified Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor (BSc Hons) based in Norwich. I provide a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. My integrative approach draws on a range of therapeutic theories, allowing me to tailor our sessions to suit your individual needs. I recognise that each person is unique, and what works for one may not work for another.
A significant focus of my work is supporting survivors of sexual abuse and rape. I bring sensitivity, empathy, and deep understanding to working with those who have experienced such trauma. I recognise the immense courage it takes to seek help, and I am committed to providing a space where you feel safe, validated, and heard. Together, we can explore the impacts of your experiences at a pace that feels right for you, focusing on healing, rebuilding self-trust, and fostering resilience.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
