About Nichola
Nichola Johnson is a counsellor who draws on four years of professional experience to help people facing relationship strain, anxiety and low mood. She works with issues such as addiction, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and difficulties with self-esteem and motivation. Nichola approaches people with respect and simple language, making conversations feel straightforward and manageable.
She believes each person carries important knowledge about their own life. Sessions focus on listening closely and building on a person’s strengths.
Background and approach
That can mean talking through painful memories, making sense of overwhelming feelings, or finding small changes that improve day-to-day life. Nichola uses a client-centred approach, which places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. She adapts the pace to what feels right, and encourages practical steps that match a person’s goals.
Expect clear discussion and supportive reflection rather than technical jargon. Common topics she addresses include grief, stress, anger, career pressures and coping with life changes. She also helps people facing jealousy, eating concerns and relationship uncertainty.
Conversations are guided by what the person needs to explore in that moment. Sessions can take place through video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life. Nichola accepts international clients and offers help in English.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire then schedule sessions according to availability.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of every session. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what is heard and helps the person decide what matters most to them. This approach is useful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship worries, grief and general life stress because it builds on a person’s own strengths and choices.Working out which approach fits best is part of the process. The counsellor and client decide together which way of working will help meet the client’s goals. That may mean focusing on listening and exploring feelings first, then moving to practical steps that fit day-to-day life.
Online formats offer flexibility that can make therapy easier to fit in. Video calls let visual cues guide the conversation and feel closer to face-to-face meetings. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be simpler for short check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter, timely conversations and can suit people who prefer writing their thoughts. These options make it easier to keep continuity and steadily work toward the changes a person wants.
