About Nicolette
Nicolette Bennett is a counsellor who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma, addiction and parenting pressures. She offers straightforward help for issues such as low self-esteem, depression, sleep problems, eating concerns and relationship or intimacy-related difficulties. She also addresses more specific struggles like panic attacks, dissociation, feelings of emptiness and challenges linked to young adulthood.
Nicolette uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy to create a respectful, non-judgemental space where people can be heard. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to work on thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going.
Her background includes roles as a substance misuse mentor, outreach youth worker and support worker with adults who have disabilities and complex needs. Those roles shaped a practical style that focuses on clear steps and realistic goals. Her work has involved supporting people with self-harm, suicidal ideation and histories of physical or sexual abuse.
Nicolette is a member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and has five years of counselling experience. She offers sessions in English and is based in the United Kingdom. She also works with international clients where appropriate.
She works collaboratively to decide what will help most, and she can adapt sessions for different needs. Before booking it is sensible to check the current session options and scheduling choices to make sure they fit your situation.
How her approaches work in online counselling
Nicolette uses Client-Centred Therapy to make sessions feel respectful and collaborative, by focusing on listening and reflecting what matters to the individual. This approach helps people feel understood and safe to talk about difficult experiences.She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and to try practical exercises that reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic attacks and low mood. CBT can be helpful for managing sleep problems, panic and stress by giving clear skills to use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Nicolette discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts techniques to suit their needs. That might mean focusing more on listening and emotional support at first, then introducing CBT tools when the client is ready.
Her biography notes experience with telephone and online counselling, so ask about the exact session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. Discussing how you prefer to work helps ensure sessions match your life and goals.
