About Nicky
Nicky Young is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and life changes. Her profile also lists support for relationship strain, addictions, grief, trauma and anger concerns.
Nicky focuses on straightforward, conversational work. She encourages clients to talk through what is happening and to notice what helps and what makes things harder. Sessions aim to be practical, with steps that can be tried between meetings.
Her background combines client-centred principles with mindfulness and solution-focused ways of working. That means she listens for what matters most to the person, uses mindfulness tools to spot patterns in thinking and feeling, and helps set small, achievable goals. These approaches are used flexibly rather than as rigid programmes.
People contact Nicky about workplace stress, relationship tension, fertility worries, feelings of isolation, and crises that come with midlife change. She also lists support for compassion fatigue and issues around intimacy and sleep. The emphasis is on clear discussion and building manageable coping strategies.
Practical steps are part of her approach. Sessions look at triggers, immediate breathing or grounding techniques, and quick actions to reduce flare-ups of anger or intense anxiety. Over time the work also explores values, personal priorities and simple behavioural adjustments that help day-to-day life.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the person brings. Online sessions use this by prioritising the client's concerns and reflecting what matters most to them. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing practices to notice tension and anger as it arises; these can be guided in sessions and practised between meetings. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, concrete steps and clear goals to change what is happening now rather than analysing everything that went wrong.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods that suit the individual's needs. Clients and therapist review progress and adjust the way they work together as needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into workdays, quieter routines and family schedules, or useful when they prefer not to travel. Online work can make short check-ins simpler and helps carry forward mindfulness exercises between sessions. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the pace and practical tasks to suit everyday life and commitments.
