About Nicola
Nicola Jameson is a counsellor and psychotherapist in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She works with adults facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, anxiety, stress and addiction. Nicola also helps people managing sleep and eating concerns, anger, ADHD and life transitions.
Her work begins with a practical focus on what is causing difficulty at home or at work. Sessions are client-centred and conversational. Nicola listens to current problems and to what has happened in the past that still affects day-to-day life.
She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape present patterns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) inform approaches to feelings and regulation.
Nicola supports people through bereavement, separation and the fallout from abuse or domestic violence. She also offers practical coping strategies for stress, addictions and overwhelming emotions. Work may include behavioural tasks, emotion regulation skills and talking through painful memories.
Sessions aim to be steady and straightforward. Nicola notes the limits of short-term change and works with people to set clear, manageable goals. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and NCPS and sees clients across the UK and internationally.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Nicola uses attachment-based ideas and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to work with recurring relationship patterns and thinking that fuels anxiety. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship experiences shape current reactions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours to reduce distress.She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and organise strong feelings. EFT techniques aim to make emotions easier to understand and respond to, which can be useful after loss, separation or abuse. These approaches are practical and target what people report is most difficult in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Nicola will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and agree a plan together. That plan can change as therapy progresses, with regular check-ins about what is helping and what to try next.
Please confirm current session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific options. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy routine, reduce travel time and make it easier to keep appointments around work or family tasks. If you need a shorter check-in or a session that does not use video, mention that when booking so you can discuss practical arrangements.
