Nicola Keenan, BACP

“Stars cannot shine without darkness” by D.H Sidebottom is included in Nicola Keenan's approach as a reminder that difficulty can coexist with growth. Nicola Keenan is a counsellor who invites people to explore life's pressures in a calm, non-judgemental setting where listening and support are central. She creates a relaxed therapeutic space in which a person can look at the changes they want to make and be supported in taking steps toward those changes.

She has worked with a range of mental health and wellbeing concerns, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), domestic abuse, and sexual, emotional and physical abuse. Nicola describes her practice as person-centred counselling - a non-directive talking therapy founded by Carl Rogers that prioritises empathy and unconditional positive regard so that clients feel empowered to discover their own solutions.

Nicola is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom. Her style emphasizes listening without judgement and walking alongside clients as they work toward meaningful, positive change.
