About Nikki
Nikki Dunne is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and related concerns such as anger, relationship strain and low self-esteem.
Nikki works from a client-centred approach. She treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life and draws on each person’s strengths when they want to make changes. Sessions focus on listening, exploring what matters most, and finding practical ways to manage feelings and reactions.
People often come to her with issues around family, parenting pressures, grief or work-related strain. She also accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. Nikki aims to help people untangle what keeps them stuck and to identify small, realistic steps forward.
Her style is straightforward and respectful. Conversations look at patterns, triggers and the effects of past experiences. Practical coping strategies are offered alongside reflective conversation when they seem useful to the person.
Sessions follow a simple structure so that time is used clearly. Nikki asks about immediate concerns, explores the recent history, and then works with the person to agree practical next steps. She asks people to try small changes between sessions and reviews what helps and what does not.
Client-centred work and online sessions
Nikki uses client-centred therapy, which focuses on listening, understanding a person’s perspective, and helping them draw on their own strengths. This approach suits people who want a conversational, respectful process and support in making practical changes.The method is simple in practice: the therapist follows what the person brings, reflects what is said, and helps identify small steps to try between sessions. This can help with issues like anxiety, anger, relationship strain and managing stress after trauma.
Finding the right fit is part of the work. Nikki will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and will collaborate with each person to choose an approach that matches their needs.
The original biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so sessions are more practical alongside daily commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt conversation style and pacing to suit remote sessions.
