Nicola Vernon is a person-centered counsellor with 20 years of experience supporting adults, children, young people and families in the United Kingdom. She brings long-standing practice to work with a broad range of concerns and maintains professional standing with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).

Her work covers depression, general anxiety and social anxiety, relationship difficulties, addictions and childhood trauma. She also has extensive experience working with bereavement and loss, particularly with children and family groups, and attends to the emotional impact these experiences create.

Nicola creates a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can explore feelings and begin to understand how past and present experiences shape emotional responses. Her approach is collaborative and paced to the individual so that clients are heard and supported at a speed that feels comfortable to them.

In addition to person-centered practice, Nicola has additional training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, counselling supervision, family bereavement and life story work, inner child approaches and working with trauma. These skills inform her flexible, client-led sessions.

She currently carries out sessions on weekends and in the evenings.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?

Clients often consider whether remote sessions will meet their needs. For many common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes - online therapy can work in ways similar to traditional in-person sessions, and it is a practical option for those seeking support from a distance.

One major advantage is flexibility. Clients can connect with therapists using the format that best suits their circumstances, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy schedule.

Licensed professionals provide the therapy, and clients have the option to change therapists if a different fit is preferred. For people balancing work, family or other commitments, remote therapy offers a convenient way to access consistent support without the need to travel.
