About Nichola

Nichola Salter is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional counselling experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, cope with addictions, process trauma and abuse, and work through grief and loss. Nichola also lists support for anger, relationship and family concerns, self-esteem, career issues, ADHD and other life adjustments.

Nichola draws on a mix of practical talking approaches. She works in a client-centred way, listening for what matters most to the person in front of her. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help people notice patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going.

Mindfulness methods are offered to help with present-moment noticing and calming when emotions feel overwhelming. Solution-focused ideas help keep sessions aimed at realistic next steps rather than getting stuck on past events. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with space to reflect and try new ways of reacting.

She approaches ADHD support alongside other presenting concerns, helping people organise strategies and manage day-to-day demands. Nichola makes room for practical problem solving about work, parenting strain, or managing anger that affects relationships.

For people worried about temper, she breaks problems into small, workable tasks. She helps build clearer communication, short-term coping tools, and simple behaviour changes to reduce tension and snapping. To begin, viewers are asked to confirm current session options before booking.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. Online this means sessions are led by the client’s priorities, with the counsellor reflecting and asking questions to clarify goals and next steps.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours. In remote sessions CBT can include short exercises, homework tasks and practical plans to try between meetings. Mindfulness work teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and notice automatic responses.

Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. The counsellor will talk through options based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences and agree on what to try first. Adjustments are expected as work develops so the approach can shift if something isn’t helping.

The biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when useful, and avoid travel time. It also allows practical tasks and worksheets to be shared between meetings, helping keep momentum between sessions.
