Nicole Uprichard, BACP

Nicole Uprichard is an experienced, trauma-informed therapeutic counsellor and personal development coach who provides both short-term and long-term therapy. She is a registered therapist in the United Kingdom and holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which denotes membership in the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists.

In counselling sessions she offers compassionate support for a broad range of psychological difficulties including trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and bereavement, anger, and relationship challenges. She also works with parents who have faced the profoundly difficult experiences of baby loss and birth trauma, bringing understanding and specialist focus to those needs.

As a coach, Nicole takes a forward-looking, action-oriented approach that helps people identify and progress toward specific personal or professional goals. She combines counselling and coaching when appropriate, creating a holistic way of working that supports personal development, resilience, and growth over time.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Nicole integrates evidence-informed methods to tailor support to each person's needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward meaningful goals - it can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and learning practical strategies to change them, which often helps with stress, depression, and anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens closely and supports the client to access their own resources for growth, which can aid self-esteem and relationship concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Nicole works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the work remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to attend sessions around work, family, or mobility constraints and enable ongoing support for people living in different locations. Registered professionals and therapists can deliver meaningful therapeutic work through these channels while accommodating each client's practical needs.
