Our counselling sessions are designed to support you
At Collaborative Counselling, we understand how overwhelming life’s challenges can be and how isolating it feels when you’re struggling to cope. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, grief, or stress, we’re here to provide compassionate support, helping you find clarity and navigate your way forward.
Anxiety
Anxiety can be an overwhelming and persistent feeling of worry, fear, or unease, often interfering with daily life. Whether it’s social anxiety, generalised anxiety disorder, or panic attacks, these experiences can leave you feeling trapped and unable to enjoy everyday moments. Collaborative Counselling offers a compassionate, tailored approach to help you identify the root causes of your anxiety and develop coping strategies that work for you. With years of experience and accredited training, Nicky provides a safe, non-judgemental space to help you regain control and confidence in your life.
Depression
Depression can make even the simplest tasks feel impossible. It’s a deep sense of sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness that doesn’t go away on its own. If you’re feeling isolated, disconnected, or struggling to see the positives in life, Collaborative Counselling can help. Nicky is experienced in working with people battling depression and provides a warm, empathetic environment to explore your feelings. Together, we’ll develop strategies to manage your symptoms and work towards rebuilding your sense of self and wellbeing. Don’t face depression alone—professional support can make all the difference.
Stress Management
In today’s fast-paced world, stress can often feel unmanageable. Whether it’s pressure from work, family, or personal obligations, long-term stress can lead to burnout, physical health problems, and emotional exhaustion. At Collaborative Counselling, Nicky helps you identify the sources of your stress and equips you with practical techniques to manage it effectively. With a background in both counselling and corporate HR, Nicky is particularly skilled at addressing work-related stress and its impact on mental health. Don’t let stress take over—through personalised support, you can restore balance and regain control.
General Wellbeing
Maintaining a healthy mind is just as important as physical health. Counselling for general wellbeing supports you in exploring any thoughts, feelings, or life challenges that may be holding you back from living fully. Whether you’re feeling a little off or simply want to improve your mental resilience, Collaborative Counselling provides a space to work through these issues. With Nicky’s holistic approach, you’ll develop tools to nurture your emotional, mental, and even physical wellbeing, ensuring you can face life’s challenges with a stronger, more balanced mindset.
Dealing With Grief & Loss
The loss of a loved one can be one of life’s most painful experiences. Grief affects everyone differently—sometimes it’s overwhelming, while other times it may feel like a numbness or inability to process the reality of loss. Collaborative Counselling offers sensitive and understanding support for those navigating grief and bereavement. Whether your loss is recent or you’ve been carrying it for years, Nicky helps you explore your feelings, come to terms with your loss, and find a way forward at your own pace. You don’t have to go through this alone—counselling can help you find hope and healing in difficult times.
Trauma
Trauma can leave lasting emotional scars, affecting your relationships, self-worth, and overall wellbeing. Whether it’s the result of past abuse, accidents, or deeply distressing experiences, trauma can feel all-consuming. Through a personalised approach, Nicky at Collaborative Counselling helps you work through trauma with care and patience, supporting you as you process your experiences. Specialising in trauma-informed counselling, Nicky provides a safe space for healing, helping you rebuild your confidence, reclaim your life, and move forward without fear.
Understanding Relationships
Relationships can be complex and challenging, especially when it comes to setting healthy boundaries or navigating emotional conflicts. Whether you’re facing difficulties in personal relationships, family dynamics, or friendships, counselling can provide valuable insights and tools to improve communication and understanding. Collaborative Counselling offers relationship support that focuses on your individual needs, helping you build stronger, healthier connections with the people around you. Nicky’s empathetic approach ensures you feel heard and supported, offering a judgement-free zone to explore your relationship challenges and how to address them.
Coping With Work
Workplace stress is a growing concern, often spilling over into personal health and relationships. Whether you’re struggling with workplace pressure, burnout, or difficult work dynamics, at Collaborative Counselling, you’ll find a space to talk about your challenges and develop strategies to manage stress, improve work-life balance, and create a healthier relationship with work. Don’t let work control your life—get the support you need to regain balance and focus.
