About Nicola
Nicola Lomas is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing depression, anxiety and stress. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through difficult feelings at their own pace. Nicola uses an integrative style that adapts to each person rather than following one fixed method.
She pays particular attention to people who have survived sexual abuse or rape, offering sensitive support and steady listening.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding how past experiences affect daily life and on practical steps to rebuild self-trust. Nicola aims to help clients move from feeling overwhelmed to finding clearer ways to cope. Her work also covers grief, issues around sexuality and LGBT concerns, and problems like guilt, shame and loneliness.
She helps people who struggle with attachment or abandonment worries and with communication problems that affect relationships. Nicola brings five years of professional experience to these areas. Nicola trained to an honours degree level in integrative psychotherapeutic counselling, and she is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Her background informs a flexible approach that blends talking therapy with practical coping strategies. The focus is always on what the client needs right now. Sessions are offered in several online formats to suit different lives.
Nicola supports international clients in English and works collaboratively to set goals and plan sessions that feel manageable. She encourages small steps and realistic change.

Focus areas and approaches
What Nicola works with
Everything Nicola lists, in their own terms.
Online support
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Nicola discusses goals and preferences with each client and adjusts methods as the work progresses. This means the plan can change if something feels unhelpful, and the client helps shape the pace and focus of therapy.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or a camera is not wanted. Live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, daily support, or people who find written reflection easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel, while keeping the focus on steady, accessible support.
