About Nicole

Nicole Uprichard works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression and relationship issues using a mix of counselling and coaching approaches. She is a BACP counsellor and has eight years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

She offers both short-term and longer-term therapy. Sessions focus on what is affecting day-to-day life and on practical steps people can try between meetings. Her work covers grief, bereavement, anger, addictions, parenting challenges and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people affected by baby loss and birth trauma.

Nicole blends counselling with action-focused coaching when that fits the person’s goals. That can mean setting concrete aims, trying new coping strategies, and reviewing progress in later sessions. She uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy alongside client-centred and somatic approaches.

Her style aims to be direct and clear. Sessions are structured around the person’s priorities, with practical skills and reflective conversation. Nicole pays attention to family of origin issues, attachment and adoption or foster-care related concerns when these are part of someone’s story.

People come to her for help with changes at work, parenting strain, relationship and communication problems, and issues linked to abuse or domestic violence. She also offers support for chronic pain, illness or disability where emotional coping is needed. International clients may be supported in English.

How her therapeutic approaches work with online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that matter to them. It often suits people who want to build values-based goals and practical ways to cope with distress.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour, and uses small experiments and exercises to change patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and stress-related problems.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying clear goals and steps to get there, often producing short-term gains and useful tools for day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nicole will discuss options and agree with the person which methods to try, adjusting them as goals and needs change. The decision is collaborative and can mix counselling with action-focused coaching when helpful.

The biography does not list specific remote formats, so confirm which session types are offered before booking. Practical benefits of remote sessions include easier fitting of appointments into a busy week, less travel time, and the option to use shorter check-ins when that suits a person’s schedule. Registered or accredited professionals can work with international clients, and online sessions can make access simpler for those living abroad.
