Nicola Moran, BACP

Nicola Moran is a UK-based psychotherapist and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She works in an integrative way, blending different therapeutic models to suit each person she sees. Nicola presents a calm, practical approach and aims to make therapy straightforward and useful from the first session.

She brings ten years of direct therapy experience and over two decades working in health and wellbeing. That background includes supporting people with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, motivation, self-esteem and confidence. Nicola focuses on what helps people manage day-to-day life and feel steadier under pressure.

In sessions she listens for what matters most to the individual and builds on their existing strengths. The work is collaborative and paced to the person’s needs. Nicola explains ideas clearly and offers practical steps alongside deeper reflection.

She also supports people dealing with relationship difficulties, parenting strain, career changes, ADHD concerns, LGBT issues and compassion fatigue. Additional interests include attachment-related difficulties, adoption and foster care themes, body image, chronic illness, and communication problems.

Sessions are offered in English and Nicola accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and therapist availability, and sessions run on a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Nicola’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and emotions. It can help when someone struggles with trust, closeness or feeling overwhelmed in relationships. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgemental space where the person sets the pace and direction of the work; this approach is useful for building self-understanding and confidence. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Nicola works collaboratively to identify which methods feel helpful, and she adjusts the plan as goals and needs become clearer. Clients play an active role in choosing what to try and when to change direction.

The practical benefits of online therapy include making sessions easier to fit around work, family and travel, and reducing time spent on commuting. Online work can allow shorter check-ins when needed or sessions that suit a quieter daily schedule.
