About Nikki Ellen

Helping you find calm, clarity & confidence.
- Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed, sad or anxious and have been wondering about counselling/hypnotherapy since you have tried other therapies but didn’t work?
- I am a warm, friendly, qualified, fully insured counsellor and hypnotherapist.
- I am experienced in working with a variety of issues like anxiety, depression, relationship break up, lack of motivation, stress, lack of confidence, low self-esteem, insomnia, smoking cessation, weight loss, bereavement and loss.
- I have also had extensive experience in working with young people on exam stress, fear of giving presentations, driving test nerves and dealing with the aftermath of being bullied.
- I work to help clients talk through, understand and manage their feelings so that they feel more in control and resilient.
- I listen to what has happened with warmth, empathy and acceptance, ask you questions to help you organise the often overwhelming nature of bereavement and loss and offer you strategies, where appropriate, to support your wellbeing.

Remote Therapy
- Online/Virtual sessions can be done remotely thru telephone, doxy.me, WhatsApp, Zoom, Google Hangouts or Google Duo.
- I can offer free help with setting up my client’s technology at the start of the first session, in case the technology is new or unfamiliar for them.
- Actual session begins from when the technology has been set up.
