About Nicole
Nicole Barry is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and family issues, and anger. She also works with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, sleep and eating concerns, and career or life-change stressors.
Nicole describes her approach as integrative, blending several methods to suit each person's needs. Sessions move at a pace the client prefers. She works alongside clients on practical steps and reflections that can continue after therapy ends.
She uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice patterns and make different choices. Attachment-based and Emotionally-Focused ways of working are used when relationship patterns and closeness are the focus. Client-centred practice guides the conversation so the person feels heard and can set their own goals.
Nicole offers a mix of messaging check-ins and therapy by phone or video calling, depending on the client's preference. The service accepts international clients; sessions are conducted in English. Costs vary by location and are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
To begin, people use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. She aims to help people understand their reactions, try practical tools, and build ways of coping that suit everyday life.
How sessions work
Approaches Nicole Uses and what online work looks like
Nicole commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. ACT helps people get clearer about their values and take flexible action despite strong feelings. CBT focuses on noticing unhelpful thinking and trying practical experiments to change routines and reactions.She also uses attachment-informed and client-centred ways of working when relationship patterns and feeling understood are the focus. Attachment-based work looks at how early patterns affect current closeness and trust. Client-centred practice keeps the conversation focused on what the client finds important and helps them set their own goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Nicole discusses options with each person and adjusts methods according to their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative decision made over the first sessions rather than a one-time choice.
The biography lists messaging check-ins plus therapy by phone or video calling as formats she offers. If you need different session styles, confirm current options before booking. Online formats can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow shorter check-ins by message when helpful, or offer phone calls when video would be difficult.
