Nicky Rawlence

I am available to see clients in-person on Tuesdays & Wednesdays in Clapham, London SW4.

I understand that taking the first steps to psychotherapy or counselling can be a daunting prospect especially if you are in distress and/or suffering from anxiety, relationship or family issues, addiction, low self-esteem, depression or any other stresses or concerns, and there may be considerable anxiety about talking to someone new. 

I welcome you to contact me by phone or email for an initial enquiry. I aim to respond within 2 days to see if you’d like to arrange a first meeting where I will listen to your concerns and explain how I work therapeutically and if you’d like to continue we can arrange regular ongoing weekly sessions.

I believe the quality of the client-counsellor/therapist is the most important experience in therapy, indeed essential to a positive outcome. I hope to build a therapeutic relationship with you that is supportive, trusting, genuine and provides a caring, respectful, safe, secure and confidential place for you to talk openly with someone who is neutral and non-judgemental.

I offer short-term or long-term therapy to individuals or couples seeking help. I also offer supervision to trainees and qualified practitioners, do contact me for more information.

Qualifications:

BA Psychology (University of Exeter)

Post-Graduate Diploma Psychotherapy & Counselling (Regents College 2012)

Advanced Diploma Integrative Psychotherapy (Regents University 2015)

I am a Member of Â鶹ԭ´´ and a Registered Psychotherapist with UKCP and follow their Professional Codes of Ethics.

I offer a brief initial phone call (free of charge) and then I may offer an initial session of 50 minutes which gives  you a chance to to explain your concerns, for me to take some biographical details and to describe how I work. This gives us an opportunity to see if we feel comfortable working together and if it would be beneficial for us to continue to work together going forward.

I usually take brief notes during this initial session as it is more of a fact-finding session.

There is no obligation to continue after this initial session.
