About Nicholas
Nicholas Taylor is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. He works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, addictions and relationship problems. He also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, sleeping troubles, anger and major life changes.
He takes a person-centred approach and treats the individual as the expert in their own life. Sessions focus on what the client wants to change and build on strengths that are already present. Nicholas aims to create straightforward sessions where people can talk through what feels hard and try practical steps forward.
Nicholas also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help with unhelpful thinking and mindfulness methods for managing stress and staying grounded. Solution-focused and narrative ideas are introduced when they fit a client’s goals and preferred ways of working. This mix gives options rather than one fixed path.
He has worked across a range of concerns, from career uncertainty and intimacy-related worries to addictions and family of origin issues. Nicholas notes common themes such as commitment concerns, communication problems and feelings of emptiness and abandonment in his practice. He is available to work with people who are living in other countries and communicates in English.
To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session. Nicholas works to GMT and replies in office hours from 9am to 8pm GMT, with responses to other time zones as soon as he can.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions with Nicholas
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s lead. It helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and decide what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours are linked and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. This is often useful for anxiety, low mood and stress.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Nicholas will discuss different methods and agree what to try based on the client’s goals, preferences and how they respond. Plans can change over time if something isn’t helping or if priorities shift.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. Online working can make it easier to fit sessions around study, work and travel and can reduce time spent on commuting. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions outside usual local hours to accommodate different time zones. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, can use a mix of approaches so practical tools from CBT and reflective work from person-centred practice can be combined during online meetings.
