About Nicolette
Nicolette Bennett helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She supports those coping with addiction, relationship strain, self‑esteem struggles and sleep problems. Parents concerned about parenting stress or intimacy issues will find practical, straightforward support.
Nicolette uses everyday language and a calm manner to make starting therapy easier. Nicolette has five years of experience as a counsellor and she is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Background and approach
She trained in both integrative counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy, and brings together approaches that suit each person. Her background includes work as a substance misuse mentor and as an outreach youth worker with vulnerable young people. She has also supported adults with mental health and complex needs, including people with disabilities and mobility issues.
That experience shapes how she plans sessions and sets realistic goals. Sessions focus on practical steps, coping strategies and clearer thinking about difficult situations. Nicolette is used to working with issues such as panic attacks, dissociation, self‑harm and the aftermath of physical or sexual abuse.
She also helps people with eating concerns, grief, bipolar mood swings, anger and career stress. Her additional focus areas include abandonment, control issues and feelings of emptiness. Therapy is collaborative and paced to what each person can manage.
Nicolette aims to create simple, achievable ways to reduce distress and build everyday coping skills. Sessions are delivered in English and she accepts international clients.

How Nicolette works online
Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses clear strategies and exercises to tackle anxiety, panic and unhelpful habits, and is useful for depression and some addiction behaviours.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nicolette will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then agree a way forward together. That shared planning helps tailor tasks and pacing to each person.
She is trained in telephone and online counselling, so discuss which options are currently offered when booking. Online therapy can fit into busy days, make it easier to join from different locations, and allow shorter check‑ins when needed. Some sessions focus on skill practice and homework, while others are longer conversations to reflect and plan next steps.
