About Nicolette
Nicolette Bennett is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression and self-esteem struggles.

Background and approach
She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. Her day-to-day approach is integrative. She blends client-centred listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy, choosing what fits each person.
Sessions focus on clear goals and on small steps that can be put into practice between meetings. Practical experience in telephone and online counselling informs how she runs remote sessions. Conversations tend to be straightforward and paced to suit how someone is coping that week.
Nicolette pays attention to dissociation, panic and addiction patterns when these come up. People describe her work as collaborative and task-focused, with space for emotion and reflection. She aims to help people build coping skills, manage symptoms and make decisions that feel manageable.
The emphasis is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Practical approaches for online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the centre of sessions. It focuses on being heard, understood and accepted, and suits people who need space to talk things through at their own pace.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, brings a practical focus to unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It uses simple exercises and homework to reduce symptoms like panic attacks, anxiety and low mood.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how someone responds to different methods. Together they decide which mix of listening and practical tools feels most helpful for the person's situation.
Online formats offer useful flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client work face to face, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, written reflection or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy going around work, travel or busy family life.
