Testimonials
I’ve been working with Nicole for 3 months now, after recognising that I was struggling with repeated dating and relationship patterns, as well as self-esteem issues within myself. I was nervous and excited to start this journey but Nicole was patient and understanding right from the get-go, gently challenging whilst guiding me to explore different areas of myself and life to work through all the things holding me back from being my best self. It’s been tough at times, but it’s all been worth it - now I feel much more assured and worthy, and I’m able to put into practice the techniques we’ve gone through to help deal with situations that would have usually left me stressed and anxious, but now I’m able to communicate effectively within.
I loved the ‘homework’ aspect, and Nicole had been great at consolidating what we’d discussed in session and then encouraging me to go away to really work on things myself - journaling, affirmations, and coming up with phrases to help me re-wire those stressful triggers. This has helped me heal a lot quicker than previously, and Nicole helped me to recognise how those old patterns weren’t just in dating but other relationships too.
I feel transformed, unlike anything before, and it’s given me such a sense of self that I haven’t felt in a long time. I will continue to see Nicole for ongoing support as I re-enter the dating world, but the work she has done to set me up and take the leap so far has been invaluable.
Nicole is patient, kind, dedicated to your personal growth and above all a truly lovely person! Thank you so much Nicole, I couldn’t have done it without you!

“Whether you’ve suffered recent heartbreak, need support in a new relationship, have family issues or feel lost in yourself, I can wholeheartedly recommend working with Nicole”
“Nicole’s relationship coaching really helped me get through a complicated break-up”
Within a few sessions, I was able to finally make a decision with clarity and confidently go with it, without any hesitation and doubts like before. I now feel in control of my thoughts, and I’m so happy that I have stepped bravely into a new chapter of my life.
Nicole helped me reflect on my concerns and provided me with refreshing ways of seeing things. She used various techniques and exercises in the sessions, which were inspiring to use and really helped pinpoint what exactly is most important to me and what I want in life, which I never really thought of, or considered before.
After each session, I felt really good, like all the messy files jumbled in my head were all placed neatly in organised compartments. My head felt clearer and my emotions more settled and in control. A weight lifted off my shoulders and more confidence in my decision-making.
She’s an excellent listener, made me feel instantly comfortable, and is really good at making people feel important. I didn't feel judged or embarrassed to mention things that I wouldn't really speak about to anyone else about.
It felt amazing to have someone really listen to me and take my situation seriously! To have the opportunity and space to talk about everything that’s been locked up in my head – all the emotions that have been stirring up inside.

“I needed help with dating and understanding more about my attachment style, which I didn’t want to let get in the way of my relationships anymore”
I knew a bit about what had caused me to have an avoidant attachment style but I wasn’t sure how to move on from it. Nicole reassured me from the beginning that it is possible to move past it and she was confident that she could help, just hearing that made me feel really positive.
Nicole is such a warm and welcoming person and I felt comfortable with her straight away. Working with Nicole has helped me to boost my self-esteem and create a positive image of myself, my outlook has changed a lot since I first reached out to her. She set me homework after each session and explained exactly how it would help and why it was important. This allowed me to work on myself outside of the sessions as well as during, which is essential in this process. The biggest takeaway I have from this experience is the positive reframes we set together. This was such a useful tool and I continue to use them every day to keep my mind thinking positively about myself and the things around me. She used relaxing guided visualisations which also helped me to heal my attachment injury. Overall my experience with Nicole has been an amazing journey and I cannot thank her enough, she’s done so much to help me and I’m very grateful for this.

Nicole helped me through a drastic life event, re-established a strong relationship with my husband and, most significantly, improved the relationship that I have with myself.
After a negative experience with a previous counsellor, I was apprehensive to seek external help last year while being in a bad place however, after an initial session with Nicole, I knew I had made the right decision. Nicole made me feel at ease from the very beginning, listening attentively and giving well-founded advice and methods of coping. The additional material that she recommended I read was truly effective and allowed me to gain a better understanding and insight into my situation.
She provided me with support and clarity, offering guidance which has helped me through a drastic life event, re-established a strong relationship with my husband and, most significantly, improved the relationship that I have with myself.
My personal improvement thanks to Nicole’s sessions has been so noticeable that it has even encouraged some of my friends to look for counselling help with their personal issues. Nicole has single handedly restored my faith in seeking external help when you need it. I cannot recommend her enough.

“Nicole is an absolutely amazing relationship coach and a delight to work with!”
My main goal was to make a decision to either stay or leave my relationship with my partner, and YES, I 100% achieved it! By having Nicole’s perspective and insight, along with the appropriate tools that she used, I was able to formulate my own decision that worked for me.
I gained so much perspective, as though I was able to view my relationship from a different lens, and that gave me the ability to become more optimistic about my relationship.
Nicole made me feel so absolutely comfortable and provided a safe space for me to be vulnerable without judgment. She has a caring and supportive nature and is very open and present, whilst also being very understanding - especially as I have children who would interrupt our sessions at times.
I would totally, and have already, recommended her to others!
Thank you so much for all the time you’ve invested in me, Nicole. I truly appreciate you and I wish you all the best for the future.

Nicole effortlessly helped me get to the root cause of my relationship issues by allowing me the space to focus on myself.
I was able to identify my repeating patterns and behaviours in a compassionate way which led me to heal my attachment injury and move forward. I now know my triggers and have clear and simple strategy to help me respond and act consciously. I also feel so much more confident and happier in life.
What I loved most is her holistic approach. Not only did we look at my main relationship issues but all of me and my life. I have a better understanding of who I am and what I want and need in my relationship and life, and feel I am able to express myself better.
I have already highly recommended Nicole to my friends, and she will certainly be my first point of call for any future issues I may encounter.

After a few relationship coaching sessions with Nicole, I'm transforming already. It's an incredible feeling!
She's very warm, easy to talk to, encouraging and positive, but very professional. She helped me look at some areas from a different perspective and suggested some tools to use in difficult times.

“Nicole helps you see the problems and solutions extremely clearly and calmly”
With her help, I was able to reach several conclusions about my relationships and life that have been a huge benefit to me.
Nicole’s style is practical and productive, whilst remaining sympathetic. She made me feel relaxed, comfortable and listened without judgement. She calmly unpicked a potentially messy set of circumstances and quite effortlessly laid out the options ahead and their benefits. It all worked quite seamlessly, feeling more like a pleasant chat rather than a coaching session.
One main insight was prioritising the balance of relationships, work and free time, and which ones were most important to me - I was quite surprised by what I learnt.
Nicole is a brilliant coach!

“Nicole helped me to deal with my emotions and anxiety better and gave me the confidence I need to have a lasting relationship”
Nicole was excellent in her work and was super helpful in guiding me through my self-doubt and the issues I needed to overcome in a gentle and nurturing way. She is great at spotting areas to work with the right tools to help work through problems.
I’m far more confident in myself and have techniques to help me when I’m struggling. When I start a new relationship, I now know what would like from it and what I can offer to others.

Nicole helped me to assess my reactions to certain triggers and encouraged me to think in a different, positive way
I had some relationship counselling sessions with Nicole to help me deal with some relationship issues and how I dealt with them. She really helped me to assess my reactions to certain triggers and encouraged me to think in a different, positive way. She also helped with my wellbeing by establishing my values.
I found Nicole very easy to talk to about my concerns. She was empathetic and a great listener.
I would not hesitate to recommend Nicole and I will definitely revisit her for any future issues.
