Nichola Faiers offers straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, low mood, anxiety or big life changes. She introduces a calm, welcoming space where people can speak openly and be listened to without judgment. Nichola aims to help clients build confidence, manage difficult feelings and find practical ways to cope day to day.

Nichola is a BACP member, which reflects her commitment to professional standards. She uses a person-centred foundation, focusing on the client's own strengths and resources.

Background and approach

Sessions are shaped around what the client needs rather than a fixed formula. Her approach is relational and collaborative. That means she works alongside a client to explore feelings that come up in the moment and to understand how past patterns might affect current life.

She pays attention to the therapeutic relationship as a tool for change. Typical concerns she supports include grief and loss, low self-esteem, depression, social anxiety and general worry. She also addresses issues such as body image, attachment questions, communication difficulties, control issues, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation.

With three years of experience, Nichola aims to tailor sessions so they feel useful and realistic. Conversations often focus on small, practical steps as well as exploring deeper feelings. Clients use whichever session format suits them best, including video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging.

How her approaches work online

Nichola’s practice is built on person-centred principles that put the client’s experience first. This approach means sessions focus on what matters to the person, drawing out their own strengths and choices to deal with stress, low mood and life transitions.

She also emphasises a relational way of working where the connection between counsellor and client is important. That relationship becomes a space to notice feelings as they arise and to practise new ways of communicating or coping. These methods are often helpful for issues like attachment difficulties, loneliness and social anxiety.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Nichola will talk with each person about their needs and goals, and then decide together which ways of working to try. The plan may change as therapy progresses to keep it useful and relevant.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Video calls are good for a fuller face-to-face feel, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins and messaging supports shorter or ongoing written conversations. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity between sessions.
