About Nicole

Nicole Uprichard is a BACP counsellor with eight years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She combines counselling and coaching to help people who are struggling with strong emotions and difficult life events. Her style aims to be straightforward and practical so people can see progress between sessions.

She offers support for problems such as stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. Anger, relationship challenges, parenting strain and addiction concerns are also within her caseload. Nicole also helps with issues tied to family of origin, abandonment and attachment difficulties.

Nicole uses a range of approaches in session, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred work. She also draws on solution-focused and somatic techniques when these fit a person's needs. Sessions combine talking, practical tools and body-based awareness to help people manage symptoms and make clearer choices.

Alongside counselling she offers coaching that is action-oriented and goal focused. That option may suit people wanting to set short-term steps for change while keeping emotional work in view. Many clients blend both ways of working over time.

Nicole works in English and accepts international clients. Sessions are organised through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary depending on location and scheduling. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before arranging appointments.

How therapeutic approaches work online and by choice

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, while focusing on actions that match personal values. It can help when anxiety, depression or anger get in the way of living the life someone wants. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, emotions and behaviour link together and teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful patterns; this is often useful for anxiety, depression and stress. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on a warm, non-judgemental relationship where the person leads the pace and content of sessions; it supports emotional processing and self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to choose or blend methods that suit their goals, preferences and the problems they bring. Plans are revisited as progress is made so the style can shift if something else would help more.

Please confirm current online session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. It also makes it possible to work across time zones for international clients. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often use these flexible arrangements to keep therapy practical and focused on everyday improvements.
