Welcome to my profile, my name is Nikki. I am based in the market town of Witney in West Oxfordshire and am a professionally trained and qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor offering therapy services to both adults and young people.

I work with clients with a range of issues including; stress and anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationships and grief. I have specialist training in grief and loss through my work as a Bereavement Volunteer for Cruse Bereavement Care providing emotional support to anyone who has experienced loss through the death of a loved one. I am also a qualified hypnotherapist and find this tool of particular benefit when working with clients with issues such as panic attacks, anxiety, stress and phobias.

Additionally, I tutor in counselling skills at a Further Education College supporting students to gain their qualifications. I also tutor on an Awareness of Mental Health course which I find links well with my counselling practice. Finally, I have supported 16-18 year old students at the college through face-to-face counselling sessions.

Please contact me for further information.
