About Nicola
Nicola Juffs is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those facing life changes and workplace pressures, and addresses men’s issues alongside concerns such as social anxiety, isolation and feelings of guilt or shame. Nicola aims to make the first step into counselling easier and more approachable for anyone feeling overwhelmed.
Nicola trained as a Humanistic Counsellor in 2017 and has eight years working in counselling roles. Before qualifying she spent many years in supportive roles across the homeless sector, mental health services and women’s services. That experience shaped a practical, down-to-earth approach to helping people through hard times.
Her way of working is client-centred. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her, using their own priorities to guide conversation and change. She also uses solution-focused techniques to help people identify small, realistic steps forward and build momentum between sessions.
Nicola aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where feelings and thoughts can be talked about plainly. She tends to keep sessions practical and straightforward, listening first and suggesting approaches the client can try in daily life.
She is based in the United Kingdom and works with people who want hands-on support for everyday struggles. Nicola encourages anyone unsure about therapy to take the short step of enquiring and completing the matching questionnaire to see if her style fits their needs.
How her approaches work for online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own experience. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what they hear and helps the person explore their feelings and choices. This approach is useful for people who need a respectful space to talk through emotions and build self-understanding.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and what works already. Sessions look for realistic goals and quick strategies clients can try between meetings. This can help when someone wants concrete change for stress, anxiety or to regain confidence.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Nicola will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that match each person's needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.
The original biography does not list specific online formats. Before booking, confirm which session formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people join sessions from quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them feel more comfortable.
