About Nicola
Nicola Biggs is a counsellor who helps people facing depression, anxiety and life changes. She focuses on what each person needs and moves at a pace that feels right. Nicola works with individual clients to untangle relationship strain, stress and trauma-related problems.
She trained and practised in local services before moving into personal work. Nicola has six years of experience and uses a person-centred core approach. That means the client’s goals guide the sessions and the pace is agreed together.
Background and approach
Sessions often include talking through difficult events, noticing patterns in relationships, and learning simple mindfulness and coping steps. Nicola also draws on solution-focused ideas to spot small changes that make a practical difference. When trauma is part of the story, she brings focused techniques to help people feel steadier in day-to-day life.
Clients typically find the work is straightforward and conversational. Nicola aims to create a calm and supportive space where people can try things out and reflect on what helps. She values the effort clients make to attend and engage in the work.
Her background includes counselling in a grammar school and with a local mental health charity, Bucks Mind, before establishing independent practice. Nicola holds the NCPS credential and offers work from a client-led base, combining different approaches to match each person’s needs.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Nicola will discuss options with each person, weigh their goals and preferences, and try methods that suit the presenting issues. Over time the approach can be adjusted so it stays practical and helpful.
Online work is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit into a short break and need less bandwidth, while live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins or quieter ways of sharing. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments and make regular sessions easier to keep.
