Therapy has been one of the best decisions of my life, Nicola has only made that experience so much better, I am so lucky to have her as my therapist, she listens to me, understands what I’m saying, then makes me hate her by asking my questions that actually betters myself, she makes you feel comfortable and just doesn’t judge you (to your face), but truthfully, she’s helping me through a lot of issues, and I couldn’t ask for anyone better to talk with, laugh with, and cry to each week

Very easy to talk to, presents herself well! She's very understanding and takes the time to listen to my situation even if I feel like I'm going off on a complete tangent. I often struggle to open up to people but Nicola has made it really easy to settle in and be honest about what I need help with.

Nicola is a considerate, professional and thoughtful person. She listens and understands my concerns and worries. She provides resources, thoughtful suggestions, advice and so much more to help work through emotions, situations and feelings. She supports long term goals and has great knowledge to draw upon for any sudden issues and concerns that have arisen. She is sensitive and empathetic. She is responsive to unscheduled messages and always prompt for scheduled sessions. I would recommend her services to those in need of assistance with anxiety and depression.

Only had two sessions but already feel very comfortable and also that Nicola is able to understand what I am trying to communicate and can offer different advice/solutions which feel tailored to me. Would highly recommend.

Working with Nicola has been brilliant. She’s insightful, not afraid to hold the mirror up to you, and focuses on your issues with compassion. There is no doubt that without Nicola, I would not have recovered from my breakdown in such a way. She’s my new hero.

I was so happy with Nicola as my therapist. She is such a kind and calm person and has been helping me a lot through the last few months. We had some emotionally challenging sessions, as well as some lighter ones, where we could laugh about things. We always adjusted the sessions according to what I needed that day. I would highly recommend her.

Written on Apr 26, 2024 after therapy with Nicola for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and grief
She is so incredibly supportive, is very easy to talk too as this is my first time trying therapy I find it very easy to chat with her, we occasionally joke around and do keep the conversation lighthearted occasionally just to keep the mood ok but is still serious and does do what I need her to do, she does care and wants to help but also does give me tons of options for what I could do to achieve my goals I highly recommend her
