Yuliia Nicholls uses psychodynamic and client-centred approaches to help people make sense of difficult feelings and life events. She offers straightforward support for stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and problems with self-esteem. Yuliia greets people in English, Russian and Ukrainian and works with adults from the United Kingdom.

She holds BACP accreditation and has five years of professional experience. In sessions she listens first, letting people tell their story at their own pace.

Background and approach

She helps uncover how past experiences and current patterns link to present struggles. Conversations are practical and grounded, aiming to turn insight into manageable next steps. Yuliia draws on trauma-focused methods when past harm continues to affect daily life.

She also uses solution-focused techniques to identify small, achievable changes that bring relief faster. This mix supports both understanding and action when people feel stuck. Her areas of interest include childhood and war-related trauma, bereavement, and issues tied to migration and culture shock.

She also helps with panic, post-traumatic stress, loneliness, perfectionism, and problems around relationships, separation and divorce. People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space where strengths are noticed alongside struggles. Yuliia encourages clients to name priorities, set short-term goals and try practical strategies between sessions.

She aims to make therapy feel manageable and relevant to everyday life.

How Yuliia's approaches work online

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. The counsellor follows the person’s lead, reflects what is said and helps people feel heard so they can decide what matters most to work on. Psychodynamic therapy looks at patterns that come from past experiences and how they affect current feelings and relationships; it helps when someone wants to understand deeper roots of anxiety, grief or repeated relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Yuliia will discuss goals and preferences and try approaches that fit the person’s needs. That collaboration means therapy can shift toward practical steps or deeper exploration as progress unfolds.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and full conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or to fit a work break, and live chat or text-based messaging suit short check-ins, journalling-style reflection or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to record short action points between meetings for steady progress.
