About Nicola
Nicola Keenan is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing anxiety and other common life stresses. She draws on four years of practice and holds BACP accreditation, offering a calm space to talk through what is worrying you and to consider small, manageable changes. Nicola listens without judgement and aims to understand each person's situation.
She uses a person-centred approach that keeps the pace set by the client.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters to the individual rather than following a fixed programme. She has experience working with stress, anxiety and depression, and with issues such as grief, relationship concerns and self-esteem. Nicola also supports people affected by trauma, including domestic and sexual abuse, and assists those coping with life changes or work-related strain.
Nicola is comfortable discussing sensitive topics such as intimacy, parenting pressures, anger and first responder issues. Her style is straightforward and empathic, helping people to spot steps they can try between sessions and to notice progress over time. Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
Nicola works collaboratively to set goals and to adapt therapy to what feels most useful for each person.
Person-centred work online and what to expect
Client-centred or person-centred therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathic space where the client leads the conversation. The counsellor reflects back concerns and feelings so the person can make their own sense of things and decide what changes to try. This approach often helps with anxiety, low self-esteem and decisions about relationships and life changes.Nicola uses that same person-centred way when working online. She will collaborate with each client to identify goals and to choose what feels most helpful. Figuring out the right approach is part of the work together, and adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a more face-to-face experience, phone sessions can fit around work or low bandwidth, live chat allows quicker check-ins, and text messaging suits people who prefer writing between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain regular contact with a counsellor.
