About Nicola
Nicola Juffs helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those coping with life changes and practical problems at work or in relationships. Nicola is known for a calm, accepting manner that helps people feel heard from the first session.
Nicola trained as a Humanistic counsellor and holds the NCPS credential. She has eight years' experience providing therapy in independent practice and employee assistance programmes.
Background and approach
Before qualifying she worked in the homeless sector, mental health services and women's services, where she developed hands-on experience supporting people through difficult times. In sessions Nicola focuses on what matters to the individual. She listens first, then helps clients set small, achievable goals.
She uses client-centred techniques to build understanding and solution-focused tools to find practical steps forward. People meet Nicola for a range of concerns including communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, isolation and social anxiety. She also works with men and women on issues such as self-love, forgiveness and life purpose.
Conversations are straightforward and based on the client's priorities. Nicola aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can talk honestly about what is hard. She encourages realistic actions between sessions so progress is visible.
If someone wants clear, practical support and a listening ear, Nicola offers a steady, compassionate approach.

Online support
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small changes. Sessions look for what is already working and build simple strategies to move forward, which can be helpful for workplace issues, communication problems and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Nicola will work with each person to choose what fits their goals and preferences, and she adapts her style as the work progresses. The emphasis is on what the client wants to change and on realistic, achievable actions.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different lifestyles. Video calls let people see one another and use visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can suit those who prefer writing or need brief check-ins. These options make it easier to schedule regular sessions and maintain momentum between meetings.
