Nicole Chester

I provide online therapy, either video or telephone.

I have a base in London and Scotland.

I am a Humanistic Integrative Counsellor and counselling supervisor.

I have been practicing since 2006 and supervising since 2013.

If a client is seeking counselling I would ideally like to have an initial telephone call to explore the clients needs and to assess whether a first appointment would be useful.

A counselling contract is agreed at the first appointment and any questions answered.

I work with a clients individual needs and adapt my approach accordingly.

I work short term and longer term with client, depending on the individual needs.

The first session is about assessing and agreeing the clients needs and a working approach to meet the individual needs.

Typically I collect more information and agree the counselling contract, together with sharing my ideas about a way of working together and agreeing goals and expectations of the work.

I am also an Integrative Supervisor using the Seven Eyed Model of supervision.

I am working remotely via video and telephone.

I have been practising as a Counsellor since 2006 and as a counselling supervisor since 2013. I have experience of working in agencies and private practice in London and Glasgow.

I think it is important to have a telephone call to hear what the client is looking for and understand a clients needs, prior to booking any initial session.

First sessions are 50 minutes in length and where contracting is discussed, agreed and documents signed. 

No two clients are the same and therefore neither is the therapy they may need, therefore I am assessing and agreeing with a client how best to meet the individual needs.

I am an Integrative, Humanistic Counselling Supervisor.

I work with the Seven Eyed Model of Supervision.

I work online only at present.

I work with individuals or groups.

The first session is agreeing a supervision contract and tayloring it if required to the individuals needs.

I am a counselling supervisor using the Seven Eyed Model.

I have supervised individuals and groups - within organisations and within private practice since 2013.

I have a base in London and in Scotland.

I am presently only delivering supervision online via video.

I am a humanistic, integrative supervisor, utilising the seven eyed model of supervision.

I would have an initial telephone call to establish what a Supervisee requires and whether I feel I am able to meet their needs.

I would then agree a first supervision session and agree a supervisory contract with them.
