About Nicki
Counsellor Nicki Janes is registered with NCPS and has five years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, career changes, depression, ADHD and related concerns. Nicki accepts international clients and holds sessions in English.
Nicki practises from a person-centred, client-focused approach. She begins by listening to what brought someone to counselling and then explores what might help next. Conversations focus on practical coping strategies as well as talking through painful feelings. She does not offer diagnoses; the work is about understanding and moving forward.
Her background includes five years supporting people across a wide age range. That experience informs a straightforward way of working. Sessions are conversational and paced to each person’s needs. Nicki aims to be non-judgemental and direct in her responses.
People commonly come to Nicki for help with communication problems, feelings of emptiness, family problems, guilt and shame, or questions about life purpose. She also supports those dealing with self-harm thoughts, self-love and women's issues, and challenges often faced by young adults. The focus is on talking through difficulties and trying out coping strategies.

How Client-Centred work translates to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of the counsellor. The counsellor aims to reflect back concerns and feelings so the client can make sense of them. This approach suits issues where being heard and understood is the main need, such as relationship problems, grief or low self-esteem.Nicki uses a person-centred stance during remote sessions, starting by finding out what brought someone to counselling and then working together on next steps. She combines listening with practical coping ideas and short-term strategies when useful. Deciding on the best way to work is a shared process and she will check preferences and goals as part of early sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the original profile, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a weekday or evening routine, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera, as some formats use just audio. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, often find remote sessions helpful for keeping continuity of support while fitting therapy into everyday life.
