Nicola | Psychotherapist, Hypnotherapist and Drawing and Talking practitioner
Psychotherapy Keighley
Welcome.
Taking the first steps towards seeking counselling can be daunting but also life changing. It's important to find someone who is the right fit for you as I believe that the relationship you and your therapist build is one of the most important aspects of the therapy.
You may be experiencing emotional difficulties, relationship problems, anxiety or overwhelm due to life's challenges or issues from your past.
We are all unique and have very different needs and problems. I am an integrative therapist using a variety of different theoretical approaches and practices to tailor our work to you individually.
Together we will explore your experiences and gain insight into your responses to enable you to understand yourself more fully. We will work together on navigating anything you are struggling with.
I will offer you my full attention, support and compassion in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment.
If you have any questions, or would like to book an appointment, please send me a message.

Specialisations
Although not a specialist in Trauma therapy, I offer a trauma informed approach and use CPD to ensure that I am up to date with current thinking and therapeutic approaches including Somatic work, Polyvagal theory and Attachment theory.The work I do with clients will often pull in helpful aspects of these theories but also CBT, Transactional Analysis, hypnotherapy and creative approaches.
Hypnotherapy can be a very effective way to treat a great number of issues including phobias and anxieties. I am also trained in The Rewind Therapy which is a hypnotherapeutic technique which can enable the brain to process traumatic memory and ease the symptoms of PTSD.
Working with children I offer a 12 half hour session intervention called Drawing and Talking or Sand Tray therapy. This is a gentle and non intrusive indirect intervention for children who are experiencing emotional difficulties or have suffered any kind of trauma. It works in a similar way to play therapy.
