About Nicola

Nicola Juffs NCPS counsellor has eight years' experience working directly with people in the United Kingdom. She helps with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and coping with life changes, and supports people dealing with workplace issues and social anxiety and phobia.

Nicola uses an approachable, conversational style. She focuses on listening and on practical steps that can be tried between sessions. Sessions aim to clarify what matters most to the client and to build small, achievable changes. Clients can expect straightforward feedback and a calm pace suited to nervous or hesitant speakers.

Her background includes work in the homeless sector, mental health and women's services as a support worker before qualifying as a Humanistic Counsellor in 2017. Since then she has worked in private practice and with employee assistance programmes. That mix of settings informs a practical approach to everyday stresses and life transitions.

Nicola draws on Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise the client's perspective and Solution-Focused Therapy to set immediate goals and actions. Those methods are used to address things like low confidence, communication problems, isolation and issues around control or guilt.

Sessions are intended to be predictable and straightforward. Nicola encourages clients to talk through their immediate concerns and to try specific steps between meetings. People curious about online options should check the current session formats before booking.

How Nicola uses her approaches in online work

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without steering the conversation and helps people name what matters most to them. This approach can help with low self-esteem, grief and feeling isolated.

Solution-Focused Therapy is short-term and action oriented. It looks at current strengths and small, practical steps to move forward. This method can suit people who want clear goals for anxiety, workplace issues or social fears.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss the client's needs, goals and preferences and agree on methods to try. That makes sessions collaborative and adjustable as progress is made.

Confirm the available session formats before booking as current options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around a busy day, to have shorter check-ins when needed, or to avoid travel. It can also let clients choose whether to be on camera or use audio only depending on what feels manageable.
