About Nicola
Nicola Moran is a psychotherapist and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has worked in the health and wellbeing sector for 22 years and brings ten years of direct therapeutic practice to people who are looking for help with stress, anxiety, relationship issues and recovery from trauma.
She takes an integrative approach, which means she uses different therapy styles and matches them to the person in front of her. Sessions focus on practical steps and on understanding patterns that keep problems repeating. Nicola aims to support people to build confidence, improve sleep and find more balance in daily life.
Her work often covers concerns such as self-esteem, ADHD, career pressures and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care, attachment questions, body image and codependency, among other issues. Nicola listens for individual strengths and helps people use those strengths to make change.
Therapy can include talking through difficult memories, noticing unhelpful thinking and practising new ways of relating. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Nicola describes therapy as a process where small steps build into noticeable change.
People who choose Nicola can expect straightforward, respectful conversation and practical strategies to try between sessions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.
How her approaches translate to online work
Nicola commonly draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her clinical work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand why they react in certain ways. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nicola will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. This collaborative process means the plan can be changed as therapy progresses.
If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that remote sessions still allow for clear, practical work on thinking patterns, relationships and coping strategies, while being flexible enough to suit everyday life.
