About Nicky

BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 3 years of professional experience, Nicky Young helps people manage stress, anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. She also supports people working on self-esteem, motivation, confidence, and dealing with relationship or workplace strains.

Nicky keeps sessions straightforward and person-focused. She uses client-centred work to follow what matters most to each person. She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help with overwhelm and Solution-Focused Therapy to set practical next steps.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented when that suits the person. Nicky listens for practical changes people can try between meetings and checks what is working. She aims to help people notice small shifts that build over time.

Her approach is plain and direct. People who want clear steps as well as space to talk find this helpful. She offers support for a broad range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, sleeping problems, anger, intimacy-related issues and compassion fatigue.

Nicky has additional focus on fertility issues, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose and midlife concerns. She also works with women’s issues, career and coaching topics. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

To start, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment through the See online therapy options button. International clients are not currently accepted.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

The client-centred approach focuses on the person’s own concerns and priorities. The therapist listens without steering and reflects what matters most. This helps people who need a space to talk through thoughts and feelings and to make their own decisions.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity. It is useful for anxiety, stress and sleep difficulties because it helps people notice and change habitual responses.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that move a person toward their goals. Sessions often set a clear next action and review what has changed by the next meeting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and agree a way of working together. That collaboration helps match techniques to what you want to achieve.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit around work, childcare and travel. They also support shorter check-ins or meetings when time is limited, and allow people to use quieter surroundings or less bandwidth depending on practical needs.
