About Nicola
Nicola Jameson is a counsellor and psychotherapist in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and works with people facing relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and motivation, and life stressors such as career changes and anxiety.
Nicola offers practical, talk-based sessions that focus on understanding feelings and patterns that get in the way of day-to-day life. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy as one of her approaches to look at emotions and attachment. She also draws on client-centred methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and DBT skills where these suit the person’s goals.
Sessions aim to help people name painful emotions, notice unhelpful patterns, and try different ways of responding. Nicola works steadily through current problems and the events that feed them. She includes tools for managing anger, sleep problems, eating concerns, addictive behaviours and stress.
People come with concerns such as depression, ADHD, bereavement, trauma, domestic violence and relationship strain. Nicola also supports those coping with major life changes, loss, illness and issues around commitment or control.
Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. Nicola explains options, talks through likely next steps, and reviews progress as therapy continues. To begin, she asks people to complete a short questionnaire and book an initial session.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and naming strong emotions and linking them to relationship and attachment patterns. Online work with EFT helps people notice moments of feeling and communication, and then try new ways of expressing needs and responding. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connection styles shape current relationships and reactions; in sessions this often means mapping patterns and testing small changes in interaction. Client-Centred Therapy keeps the person’s own perspective central, offering reflective listening and acceptance while the person works out what matters most to them.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nicola treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss which methods fit a client’s needs and goals. The choice of techniques can shift as therapy progresses, and decisions are made together so therapy stays practical and relevant.
The therapist’s original profile does not list specific session formats. Please confirm current online session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in can be scheduled during a lunch break, or video work can help with visual cues while phone sessions use less bandwidth. Many people find remote sessions reduce travel time and allow continuity when life circumstances change.
