About Nicole
Nicole Uprichard is a counsellor with eight years' experience supporting people through trauma, anxiety and life changes. She is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom and combines therapy with practical coaching to help clients who want both emotional healing and goal-focused work.
Her approach is trauma-informed and grounded in a client-centred way of working. Sessions aim to be calm and respectful, giving people space to tell their story and make sense of difficult feelings. Nicole also uses techniques from acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy when these fit a person’s needs.
She supports people facing grief and bereavement, including parents affected by baby loss and birth trauma. She also helps with depression, stress, addictions, relationship struggles and issues linked to family of origin or attachment. Practical matters such as career decisions and managing anger are part of her focus too.
Therapy can be short-term or longer-term depending on what a person wants. Nicole blends counselling and coaching for clients who want emotional work alongside practical steps towards change. Sessions are described in straightforward terms and aim to help clients build skills as well as process their experiences.
People who prefer a warm, listening style may find this approach helpful. If someone is unsure what they need, Nicole works collaboratively to shape sessions around personal goals and what feels manageable in day-to-day life.
How therapeutic approaches work online and in practice
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor aims to create a non-judgemental space where the person leads the conversation and decides what matters most. This suits people who need time to be heard and to make sense of their feelings.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress and life transitions where someone wants clearer direction and practical steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different methods and adapt them to the person’s goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and decisions about approach are made together during sessions.
If considering online therapy, confirm which session formats are offered before booking as the biography does not specify formats. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel and making it easier to plan sessions around work or childcare. It can also allow shorter check-ins on busier days or longer sessions when deeper work is needed, depending on what the client and counsellor agree.
