Nikki Croce helps people who feel stuck despite managing many parts of life. She meets people who struggle with relationships, work, eating, or overwhelming anxiety. Nikki works in a calm, patient way and focuses on practical steps a person can try.

She uses plain talk and a compassionate manner to make it easier to start discussing difficult things. Nikki draws on five years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Background and approach

She has supported people affected by sexual violence and domestic abuse and has helped clients navigate the stresses that can follow legal proceedings. She also works with people facing eating and food-related issues and other challenges that affect daily life. Her approach is trauma-informed and collaborative.

She listens to how a person describes their story, then adapts methods to suit their needs and goals. That might mean focusing on bodily sensations, working on clear short-term steps, or using trauma-focused techniques to reduce the impact of past events. Nikki aims to help people identify what is causing disruption to their sense of self, control, or self-esteem.

She supports clients to set realistic goals and to practise new ways of coping between sessions. She emphasises strengths and choices, and helps people create a clearer path forward. People from diverse backgrounds, cultures and sexual orientations are welcome to speak with her in English.

She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules.

How Nikki’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and to find their own solutions for relationship, self-esteem and life stresses.

EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing - is a trauma-focused method that aims to reduce the distress linked to traumatic memories. It can be used when past events continue to affect daily life and emotional reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their needs, goals and preferences and together they will decide which methods to try first or combine. This is a collaborative process that can change as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversations and exercises that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when someone has lower bandwidth or needs a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer written updates or want flexible, on-the-go contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily life while accessing therapists and registered or accredited professionals from across the UK.
