Counselling and Psychotherapeutic Approach

Nicola works with clients on a one-to-one basis, in a way that is best suited to their individual needs so they can explore their thoughts and feelings to better understand the particular circumstances or issues that are problematic for them and draws on their strengths and resources in order to enhance the quality of their lives.
