Nico Novell

Nico Novell is a counsellor who helps people manage anger and related struggles. He supports those feeling overwhelmed by stress, relationship tensions, grief, addiction or low self-esteem. He speaks English, Spanish and Catalan and works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Nico has 20 years of professional experience and holds BACP registration, which he uses to guide a respectful working relationship. He focuses on clear, honest conversations and adapts each session to what the person needs in that moment. Sessions aim to make strong feelings easier to understand and handle.

His practice often explores how past relationships and early experiences shape current reactions. He uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat and cause distress. That work is balanced with a client-centred emphasis on listening and following the person’s priorities.

In practical terms, sessions are conversational and paced to the individual. He helps people identify triggers, test new ways of responding, and build everyday coping strategies. The goal is steadier emotional control and better decisions when anger or stress arises.

Nico also addresses related concerns such as eating issues, family of origin problems, gender and sexual identity matters, caregiver strain, and bereavement. He encourages people to take the first step and will work collaboratively to set realistic, manageable goals.

How his approaches work in online therapy

Nico uses client-centred work to focus on the person's priorities and pace. That approach means the counsellor listens carefully, reflects what he hears, and helps people decide which issues to tackle first. It is useful for immediate problems like anger spikes, stress, or relationship conflicts.

He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring patterns and early influences that shape current reactions. This usually involves talking about repeated themes in relationships and emotions, which can help explain why anger or avoidance keeps returning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. He will discuss goals and preferences with each person and try different ways of working until something fits. The plan is collaborative and reviewed as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make fitting sessions into a busy week easier and reduce travel time. It also allows for shorter check-ins when needed, and can be a good way to maintain continuity when life changes make in-person visits difficult.
