Counselling with Nicky

I’m Nicky, a therapeutic counsellor with my private practice in Stamford.  After a 25+ year career in research & development in the corporate world and some big personal turning points, I went for therapy myself, and it changed my life very much for the better.

This inspired me to retrain and become a counsellor myself. Now, I support others like you through their own tough times or periods of self-development, offering warm, down-to-earth support with a real-world perspective to our work.

I know what it’s like to hold everything together on the outside while falling apart inside, and how powerful it can be to have a space that is your time, to be heard, to be understood, so that you can decide what is best for you.

What I Offer

I offer one-to-one counselling for men, women and young people (14+).  Sessions are £60 for 50 minutes.  Frequency of sessions is up to you, and I offer flexibility to work around your schedule wherever possible.

People often come to counselling because they are struggling with something. 

Perhaps life is harder to cope with than usual, or you are feeling stuck and not sure what to do next.  You might be finding your close relationships increasingly difficult, or be feeling low, anxious or depressed.  Perhaps you recently lost someone close to you or have recently been through a traumatic experience.  Or everyone relies on you, but inside you are tired, disconnected or running on empty.

I also encourage you to get in touch when you are feeling “okay” and you are seeking personal growth and increased self-awareness.  Counselling is great for gaining a better understanding of yourself, making sense of your experiences, gaining clarity so you can see the wood for the trees and for support around difficult decisions.

Whatever your reason is for getting in touch, it is a sign of strength to come for counselling, not a sign of weakness. 

My approach is always down-to-earth and “unstuffy”, and I do my best to work with whatever life throws your way. Therapy with me won’t be clinical or cold – it will be real, warm, and hopefully a little bit liberating and sometimes fun.

Why I Love What I Do

It is incredibly moving to support others emotionally.  To see you be yourself, to see you “get things” and know that you are making changes for yourself or learning to understand and accept yourself. 

I love helping people reconnect with themselves, whether that’s a high achiever learning to slow down, or a young person discovering they don’t have to have it all figured out. It’s a privilege to walk alongside you as you begin to feel more grounded, more confident, and more like yourself again.

The Little Extras

I also offer with “walk and talk” therapy – a great alternative if you find sitting face-to-face a bit intense.   These outdoor sessions are in Stamford and sessions are £70 for 50 minutes.
