Nicola Edworthy

Hello, my name is Nic!

With over 10 years of experience in assisting clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and depression, I am well-equipped to support you.

I hold the belief that you are the master of your own narrative and possess numerous strengths that will aid you in overcoming life's challenges. Seeking a more fulfilling and happier existence requires bravery, and I am here to support and empower you on this path to change.

My education in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy, coupled with my registration with The British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists, allows me to draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities.

These include the Person-Centred Approach, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Transpersonal Psychology, and Gestalt Therapy.

I subscribe to the philosophy that our well-being is achieved through a harmonious connection between the four components that constitute our Self: Mind, Body, Soul, and Emotion.

By reaching out, you've already made a significant stride. In our therapeutic relationship, consider me as your handrail, offering steady support as you progress towards your goals.

Together, we will explore this connection and illuminate the path forward, even in the darkest times.

It would be my honour to accompany you on this journey. Please feel free to reach out, and I eagerly anticipate our connection.

With compassion and gratitude.

Understanding the challenge of finding personal time, I offer online sessions, walk-and-talk, telephone, and home visits.

My experience with individuals facing mobility challenges and the elderly has shown that home visits foster connection and a sense of unity.

I provide both short-term, time-limited, and open-ended therapy options.

Located in North Cornwall, I offer a blend of in-person and online therapy tailored to your requirements.

Each session lasts 60 minutes.

With over ten years of volunteering for the Samaritans across the UK and international experience in both directive and non-directive therapy, I am also an expert by experience.

My additional training covers working with Neurodiversity, LGBTQ+, individuals with life-limiting conditions, disabilities, and expertise in M.E., CFS, fibromyalgia, and long COVID.

I have had the privilege of gaining extensive experience from acute patient facilities within both the NHS and private care.

Should you have any questions, wish to contact me, or want to learn more about my approach, please feel free to reach out.

Our initial session will provide an opportunity to meet and explore how it feels to talk, whether in person or online. This time allows us to begin constructing an understanding of what has led you to seek therapy and what you hope to achieve from the process.

We will talk about any concerns or fears you might have, your past interactions with mental health services or therapy in general, and, most importantly, your expectations.

By the end of this first session, you should have a clear idea of how we can collaborate and what our future work might entail.

Should you decide to proceed, we can establish an agreement to continue our sessions.

Please do reach out if you need anything further
