Hi, I’m Nicole
I’m Nicole, a qualified counsellor, creative, and curious listener.
My approach to counselling is holistic, trauma-informed, and client-centered, blending emotional reflection, somatic awareness, attachment-based principles, and mindfulness practices. I offer a steady, compassionate space where you can explore your inner world, reconnect with yourself, and build emotional clarity and self-trust at your own pace.
My work is deeply shaped by lived experience, including my own healing journey through emotional neglect, C-PTSD patterns, and the slow rebuilding of secure attachment within myself. I believe true growth comes not from pushing or fixing, but from creating the right conditions for self-trust, emotional realignment, and authentic living to emerge naturally.
Whether you are seeking emotional healing, navigating life transitions, or deepening your connection to yourself, I’m here to walk alongside you with care, steadiness, and authenticity.
“Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is”
~ Carl Jung
How We’ll Work Together
Counselling with me is a steady, supportive process, grounded in reflection, self-trust, and authentic growth. While sessions are always held with compassion and care, there may also be times where I gently invite you to explore patterns, beliefs, or emotions that are keeping you stuck. This is never about judgment, but about offering loving reflection when you’re ready, in service of your growth and deeper self-trust. Every session is tailored to your unique needs, offering a steady, supportive space for emotional realignment, healing, and authentic living.

FAQs
What can I expect from a session, and how many will I need?
Each session is tailored to your unique needs, focusing on emotional exploration, self-awareness, and building self-trust. There’s no set timeline, some clients find what they need in one or two sessions, while others choose to continue with short-term or ongoing support.
We’ll move at your pace, and you’re always welcome to decide after your initial session what level of support feels right for you.
Are the sessions online or in-person?
At the moment, all counselling sessions are offered online via Zoom. This allows you to access steady, compassionate support from the comfort and privacy of your own space, wherever you are located.
If in-person sessions become available in the future, updates will be shared here.
Do you work with NDIS clients?
Yes, I work with self-managed and plan-managed NDIS clients. Counselling can be a valuable support for participants seeking to improve emotional well-being, develop coping strategies, and align their lives with their goals. If you’re an NDIS participant, feel free to reach out to discuss how counselling can fit within your plan.
What if I’m unsure about committing to a plan?
You’re welcome to start with an individual counselling session to get a feel for the space and how we work together.
There’s no pressure to commit, you can continue with individual sessions or move into a 5- or 10-session support plan if and when it feels right for you.
What types of therapy do you use?
My counselling approach is steady, trauma-informed, and client-centred. I draw from elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), somatic awareness, attachment-based work, and mindfulness practices, adapting each session to your needs.
Rather than following a strict model, I focus on creating a compassionate space where emotional healing, self-trust, and authentic growth can unfold naturally.
My work is also influenced by a background in Yoga, meditation, and a deep respect for the mind-body connection, especially in understanding the emotional impacts of trauma and C-PTSD.
Do you work with clients of all ages?
Yes, I work with individuals of all ages, tailoring the sessions to meet your needs at any stage of life.
Do you follow ethical guidelines and maintain confidentiality?
Yes, I follow strict ethical guidelines in accordance with PACFA. Confidentiality is a priority, though I have a legal duty of care to report risks of harm. Informed consent is obtained before we begin and I engage in regular supervision to ensure best practice.
Is homework required between sessions?
Yes, I may ask you to reflect, journal, or practice mindfulness between sessions to deepen your insights and continue progress.
Are your services available internationally, and are they secure?
Yes, I offer Zoom counselling services to clients, including those in the UK. My services are covered by professional indemnity insurance, and I follow strict data protection guidelines (like GDPR) to ensure confidentiality and security.
