About Nicola Demetriou
Trained in integrative counselling, Nicola blends methods from psychodynamic work, person-centred practice, cognitive approaches and other models to suit each person she meets.

Sessions are offered weekly or fortnightly and may include techniques such as exploring and reframing unhelpful thoughts, breathing and relaxation exercises, and communication skills.
Nichola supports people dealing with stress, self-esteem issues, family and relationship concerns, grief, trauma, ADHD and related difficulties, tailoring therapy to individual needs. She is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and is based in the United Kingdom. Nicola is not currently accepting new clients.

Approaches and Online Support for Personal Growth
Nicola uses client-centred therapy to create a supportive, accepting space where the client is at the centre of the work - this approach prioritises empathy and active listening and helps with self-esteem, anxiety and navigating life changes. Narrative therapy is used to explore the stories people tell about themselves, separating the person from the problem and opening possibilities for new perspectives and choices, which can be useful for identity, relationship and trauma-related issues. Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences and unconscious patterns shape current feelings and relationships, helping clients understand recurring conflicts and patterns that affect their wellbeing.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Nicola works collaboratively with each person to identify what fits best based on their needs, goals and preferences. She discusses options, adjusts methods as therapy progresses and sets achievable goals together so the work feels purposeful and manageable.
Online therapy with Nicola is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering practical flexibility for different schedules and needs. These options make it easier to access regular sessions from home or work, accommodate mobility or time constraints, and support ongoing consistency in therapeutic work with registered professionals and therapists.
