About Nicole
Nicole Uprichard is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has eight years' experience working in the United Kingdom with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression and relationship and parenting concerns. Her work also covers addictions, self-esteem and coping with life changes.
She uses a mix of approaches to suit different needs. Sessions draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred methods, with somatic and solution-focused techniques where helpful. This means conversations can include practical steps, noticing thoughts and feelings, and paying attention to bodily responses.
Nicole offers both shorter coaching-style work and longer-term counselling. Coaching focuses on setting clear goals and taking action. Counselling explores emotional patterns, life events and difficult memories at a steadier pace.
She has particular experience supporting people with trauma, attachment-related concerns, and issues linked to adoption, foster care and family of origin. She also works with matters such as chronic pain or illness, body image and intimacy-related difficulties.
Sessions are conducted in English and Nicole accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the platform button.
How Nicole uses therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It helps people take meaningful steps in line with their values, for issues such as anxiety, low mood and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours, which can help with depression, anxiety and stress.
Client-centred work gives space for listening and reflection. The therapist follows the person's pace and helps make sense of experiences over time, a useful approach after trauma or during major life changes.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Nicole collaborates with each person to decide what to try first based on their goals, preferences and the practical issues they bring. That choice can change as sessions progress.
