I currently offer:

• Face-to-face sessions

• Online sessions 

Hi, I'm Niki.  

Thank you for taking the time to visit my page.

Our emotions are part of being human but, at times, they can feel overwhelming, out of control.  Or sometimes, the opposite; emotions feeling switched off, leaving you numb.  I would like to offer you a compassionate and confidential space to explore whatever may be troubling you. 

Maybe you feel stuck or lost.  

Or maybe your worries keep you up at night. 

Perhaps you see your feelings as "weird" or "different": as if no-one understands how it feels to be you.

Past experiences may still be affecting you and now feels like the right time to break free.

Perhaps you are going through a particularly challenging time and just feel you need some extra support.

Or it could be that you simply need to feel heard.

During our work together, my role is to listen and to help you find your own answers and solutions.   I aim to assist you in achieving balance, self-understanding and harmony in your life.

I regularly work with issues such as:

• Anxiety and/or Stress, Tension

• Low Self-esteem/Self-confidence

• Guilt

• Anger

• Low Mood, Sadness, Depression, Numbness

• Relationship difficulties

• Traumatic Events (Recent and Past)

• Bereavement and other forms of loss

My counselling work at St Christopher's means I also specialise in supporting clients with Complex or Long-term Grief, as well as other forms of loss (loss of identity, employment, relationship).

As a qualified Integrative Therapeutic Counsellor, my work integrates a Person-Centred approach with Psychodynamic, Attachment and Somatic theories and techniques.  I offer talking therapy as well as several creative therapies and am also IFS (Internal Family Systems) informed.

My role is to help you discover the roots of what troubles you and to explore what you truly want and need in life....and how you could achieve that.  Greater awareness and understanding of our thoughts, feelings and actions gives us the opportunity to begin the process of change. 

If you would like to see if my service is right for you, please get in touch.  We can arrange a free initial phone call to discuss how we might work together and what approach feels right for you.

Once we begin, our counselling sessions will be 50 minutes and will take place on the same time/day every week.  This can be short or longer term, depending on your needs.
