About Yuliia
Yuliia Nicholls is a psychodynamic counsellor who works with adults to make sense of difficult feelings. She offers sessions in English, Russian and Ukrainian and brings five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Her practice focuses on stress, anxiety and depression alongside trauma, grief and relationship difficulties.
She helps people untangle how past events connect to present struggles. In sessions she listens and asks questions that reveal patterns linked to childhood or migration experiences.
Background and approach
That can help people understand why they react the way they do and identify small changes that feel manageable. Yuliia also supports people coping with bereavement, separation and career uncertainty. She has a particular interest in war-related trauma and veteran issues, and in problems that arise after moving between cultures.
Practical coping techniques are offered alongside reflective work on life meaning and identity. The counsellor uses client-centred ways of working to keep the focus on each person’s goals. She brings psychodynamic ideas to examine long-standing patterns and solution-focused methods when people want brief, goal-directed steps.
Trauma-focused strategies are used when past harm continues to affect day-to-day life. Sessions are collaborative and paced to suit each person. Yuliia encourages people to draw on their own strengths while trying new ways to manage anxiety, anger or low mood.
She aims to make the first steps toward change feel less overwhelming.

Online support
Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences shape present feelings and habits. It helps people spot repeating patterns that affect relationships, mood and self-esteem, which can be useful for depression and long-standing anxiety. Sessions create time to reflect on these links and try different ways of responding.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and is decided together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods as therapy progresses. That collaborative planning aims to match techniques to the person’s needs rather than prescribing one fixed method.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls are useful for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions work when a camera is not wanted, and live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions around work, family or travel and to try different formats as needs change.
