About Nicky
Nicky Owen is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 20 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults on relationship and family concerns, grief and loss, and problems with self-esteem and motivation. Her practice also covers stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and issues around intimacy and anger.
Nicky believes people bring useful strengths from their lives. She treats clients as the experts in their own story and works alongside them to make sense of difficult moments. Sessions are direct and practical, with a focus on what feels manageable for the person in front of her.
Her background includes approaches that look at how attachments and emotions shape relationships. She uses methods that focus on feelings in the moment, on practical steps for change, and on addressing the impact of traumatic experiences. This mix is often used when people are dealing with separation, communication problems, or blended household tensions.
Nicky commonly helps people who are facing big life changes. That includes parenting stresses, divorce and separation matters, abandonment concerns, and the particular strains of forming a blended family. She also has experience supporting people with ADHD, autism and hearing impairment concerns when these affect relationships and daily coping.
Sessions are offered in English and Nicky accepts international clients. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients are invited to use the site button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment.
How Nicky uses her approaches in online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past and current bonds influence feelings and behaviour in close relationships. It can help when loyalty conflicts, separation or parenting roles cause tension in a blended household.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on recognising and managing strong feelings between people. It aims to help someone notice patterns in how they respond emotionally and to practise different ways of expressing needs and worries.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nicky will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then agree a way of working together. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
