About Nicola
Nicola Juffs helps people dealing with stress, anxiety and low self-esteem. She also supports those facing grief, depression and big life changes. Nicola explains things plainly and keeps sessions calm and focused on what matters now.
She trained as a Humanistic Counsellor in 2017 and uses that background day to day. Nicola has worked for many years in supportive roles in the homeless sector, mental health services and women’s services.
Background and approach
That experience shaped her practical, down-to-earth way of working. In sessions she creates space for people to speak openly without judgement. Conversations aim to identify small, manageable steps that make life feel steadier.
Nicola prefers short, clear goals so progress is easy to notice. She combines client-centred listening with solution-focused techniques. That means she will listen closely to what you say, and help you try concrete strategies between sessions.
The style suits issues like low confidence, workplace stress and social anxiety. Nicola holds the NCPS credential and has eight years of counselling experience since qualifying. She works in the United Kingdom and offers therapy in English.
If you are nervous about starting, she acknowledges that first step and helps people settle into the process.

How Nicola works online
Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on small, practical changes and clear goals. It is useful for stress, workplace issues and when you want quick steps to try between sessions rather than a long exploration of the past.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to identify which method or mix of methods fits their needs, goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made.
If you prefer online sessions, check the current session options before booking so you know what is offered. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and make it easier to schedule brief check-ins. Others favour longer meetings for deeper conversation. The emphasis is on making therapy convenient and workable alongside everyday life rather than on any single format.
