Nicola Freeman

My practice hours are as follows:

Monday to Thursday 9am to 8pm

Friday 9am to 1pm

I offer sessions online or in person at my practice in Guildford, Surrey.

Fees are £70 for daytime sessions, £75 for evening session.

I offer a free introductory session either online or in person which provides an opportunity for us to meet and see if we would like to work together.

Some concessions are available to students and counsellors in training.

I offer integrative psychotherapy for adults (18+), drawing on psychodynamic, existential and person-centred approaches. This means I tailor my work to you as an individual, exploring not just presenting difficulties but the deeper patterns, relationships and experiences that shape who you are.

I have a particular interest in working with people navigating complex emotional landscapes, including those who grew up in boarding schools, individuals experiencing attachment difficulties, early loss, bereavement or feelings of abandonment and those who have grown up in households affected by addiction, mental health or neglect. I also work with people exploring questions of identity and life transitions.

Alongside my therapy practice I have spent many years working in the Third Sector managing and delivering services across mental health, drug and alcohol services and supporting women who have experienced domestic abuse and sexual assault. This experience gives me a grounded, non-judgemental understanding of the challenges people face and deeply informs my therapeutic work.

I offer weekly ongoing psychotherapy online or in person at my practice in Guildford, Surrey.

I also offer in person and online supervision to counsellors and psychotherapists who are qualified or still in training.

I offer a safe space in which you can be seen and heard without judgement. We will work at your pace and on the issues that are important to you.  Ways of coping and patterns of relating are often set in childhood and sometimes continue into our adult lives in ways that are no longer useful to us .  By identifying and exploring how these patterns work, we may be able to make different choices:  in this way, therapy offers the potential to make changes and live a more fulfilled life.

Please contact me to discuss availability and any questions you might have.

I provide in person and online supervision both individually and in groups.

I work with trainee and qualified counsellors.

I use the Seven Eyed model of supervision and have many years experience of supervising counsellors in both organisational settings and in private practice.

I aim to provide a safe, creative and supportive space in which you can discuss your clients and develop your practice. I work with individuals and with groups.

I am an integrative psychotherapist with 25+ years experience. My integration is Person Centred, Psychodynamic, Existential.
