Laurence Nicholson

Grief-Informed Integrative Counsellor & Psychotherapist
I work non-judgmentally, to provide a safe space for us to walk together as you explore your material, and I have recognised that this style of relationship provides an opportunity for a genuine, heartfelt and sincere meeting in the sessions. This helps us remain aware of our mutual influence on the therapeutic process.
My background
Having had my own life and mental health challenges plus a significant burnout, I spent a number of years of researching other people’s experiences, learning about brain functioning and systems. This resulted in my producing global award winning* educational workshops to individuals and global corporate organisations worldwide, on practices to build cognitive resilience as well as applying emotional intelligence in communication. Whilst this was successful, I wanted to do more towards reducing the suffering in others, so in 2018/9, I embarked on a multi-year journey, training in Integrative Counselling & Psychotherapy. I now help those who are suffering not just from burnout, but a wider range of mental health issues, specialising in Grief work, but also work in areas such as anxiety, depression, childhood and recent trauma including abuse and/or neglect, PTSD, anger, guilt, feelings of being alone and unsupported, addiction, early dementia, bipolar disorder, and support when struggling with loss after bereavement. I volunteer with ‘Bereavement Care’ a bereavement support charity, and with Pegasus Men’s Wellbeing Centre CIC. * (2021 Brainz CREA Global Awards – Honouree)
As an integrative therapist, I tailor my approach to your needs. Integrative means I do this by drawing upon a number of theoretical models, in my case this includes Person-Centred Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Attachment Theory, and Transactional Analysis (TA), all ‘in the moment’ and to support whatever is presenting in you AT that moment.
