My name is Nikki and I am a counsellor based in East Riding of Yorkshire.

I worked as a counsellor in NHS Occupational Health where I supported clients with work related concerns, Bullying and work-related stress going through employment process. Prior to this, I worked as a Neuro-intensive care Nurse, Day surgery and other areas of Nursing.

I later trained as a Health Visitor, where I completed extensive psychological training in areas including Relationships, Divorce, loss, Bereavement, Depression, Abuse, Low Self-esteem, Complicated Childbirth, and Postnatal Depression. I completed training with NSPCC including Childhood Attachment difficulties resulting from being in care or adopted, Meeting Children’s Emotional Needs (NSPCC), and Healthy Child development training were my everyday work. I gained valuable experience working with young people, Adults, and children living with or fleeing Domestic Violence and the impact of this Abuse and Neglect on them. Acceptance of change due to Bereavement or loss of a loved one, or loss of your health and adjusting to living with long term conditions are also areas I have worked with.
