Camilla Nicholls

Limited availability Tuesday-Thursday 

Working hours 8am - last session 6pm (later in exceptional circumstances.)

I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist and counsellor working with individuals and couples in person and online.

I work with people once or twice weekly preferably at the same time and on the same day each week. However, this can be flexible for those whose lives are less predictable - including performers, those working in tv & film production and in support of demanding childcare responsibilities. 

I make links between the past and the present to help to break negative patterns and bring sometimes difficult or uncomfortable unconscious feelings to consciousness where they can be explored in a non-judgemental space. 

Sessions are 50 minutes. 

Everything, including communication about sessions is confidential. 

If we decide we are a good match to start working together I will ask for a home address, telephone number and GP contact details, the latter will only be used in consultation with the client if/when appropriate. 

I have experience of NHS work but currently work in private practice online and in person in North London. 

Over ten years of experience of working with individuals, and more recently couples, means a familiarity with relationship and sexual issues, trauma, sexual abuse, anxiety and depression. 

My previous experience of working at board level for arts, design and national media companies gives me a particular insight into the effects of working in stressful and pressurised environments. I specialise in working with those who have a public profile which has to be managed alongside maintaining a private life in a world of social media and AI. 

An initial assessment (or assessments) will be 60 minutes. During this session I will ask questions about what brings you to therapy, something of your family history and, if relevant, your medical background. 

Sometimes assessments can be over two or three sessions to establish that the match is a good one. 

A regular day and time will be discussed in the initial session. The fee will also be negotiated. Fees for an individual starts at £90 and for couples £125.

The fee for the initial session is the same as for any regular 50 minute session.
