About Nicolette

BACP counsellor with 5 years' experience. Nicolette Bennett helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She also addresses eating concerns, self-esteem, addictions and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Sessions draw on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).

Nicolette describes her practice as integrative. She adapts the focus to what the person brings to sessions, combining person-centred listening with practical CBT techniques when useful. That can mean talking through patterns of thought and behaviour, or focusing on present coping strategies for panic and anxiety.

Her background includes work as a substance misuse mentor and outreach youth worker. She has supported people with mental health issues, complex needs, disabilities and mobility challenges. Those roles inform a practical approach to everyday problems such as sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, and career stress.

She has experience addressing self-harm, suicidal ideation, dissociation and past physical or sexual abuse. She also works on concerns such as abandonment, control issues, and feelings of emptiness. Young adult issues are listed among her additional focus areas.

Nicolette offers telephone and online counselling and accepts international clients. Sessions are structured around the person's goals, and may include thought records, behavioural experiments or longer conversations about past experiences. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's perspective and aims to create space for them to talk through concerns. It is useful for building understanding around feelings such as emptiness, grief or low self-esteem and for discussing relational and intimacy-related issues.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It includes practical exercises such as thought records and behavioural experiments that can help with panic attacks, anxiety, sleeping problems and unhelpful habits related to addiction or eating concerns.

Choosing an approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide what fits the person's goals and preferences, and may blend methods over time. That decision is revisited as needs change.

The biography notes training in telephone and online counselling. Confirm the current session formats and scheduling options before booking. Online or telephone sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a working day, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use these formats to maintain continuity of care across locations.
