I have found my sessions with Nic extremely helpful. You have to tell yourself it's never too late to change and actually feel better or make improvements in the way you think. It doesn't happen over night and you have to work at it, but it will be so worth it. I have finished my sessions with Nic, but I will take away the valuable lessons I learnt about the way I and other people think and know that I can get through difficult situations, negative thoughts and anxiety using straight forward and practical techniques. Nic has a gentle, relaxed and reassuring approach but asks those questions that really help to get to the crux of the issue. I also liked the way he backed up a lot of what he tells you with research and new findings. I will miss my weekly sessions with Nic, and although I know I have the techniques to help me I also know there's no harm in booking more sessions in the future if needed. Thanks Nic

I'm so pleased that I found Nic's services. He provides a warn supportive and a safe space to talk about whatever you might want to work though within a session. Nic has the ability to put you at ease from the very beginning and creates an environment that you feel comfortable discussing things in. My whole experience has been incredibly supportive and helpful. Nic has been a solid reliable presence in a difficult few years and his person centered approach is definitely one I connected with. Nic helped unpick many years of unhelpful long held deep rooted beliefs in ways I hadn't even considered. I would strongly recommend contacting Nic if you are looking for a warm holistic and caring approach to therapy.

From the moment I first met Nic, I felt comfortable and able to open up to him about things. He made me feel relaxed. Before I began my sessions, I informed Nic I needed my therapist to show a little empathy, but be able to challenge me where necessary. Nic did exactly this. He helped me work through a range of different issues by utilising different techniques and whenever he asked a question or challenged me, he was always able to give a therapeutic reason as to why he was doing that.
I said this to Nic during our latest session… He just gets me! I’ve tried many therapists to no avail, but Nic gets me… He’s taken the time to understand me, appreciate my point of view and through our strong therapeutic relationship we’re able to conquer issues together.
Thank you Nic. You really are a saving grace.

Would highly recommend Nic for counselling. I had 2 sets of 6 sessions. I’ve just completed my final session and can happily say I feeling like a different person. Nic put me at ease from the very start and gave me the tools to be able to move forward and clear my mind of all the negative thoughts and worries. The mindfulness skills I have learnt from Nic will stay with me forever and have worked wonders. I’m happy to known that Nic’s door is always open though, should I ever need to go back. Thank you so much Nic.

I went to see Nic having recently come out of a stressful relationship. We spoke at length about the relationship and the issues and feelings that I had experienced. We then delved in to my childhood experiences and Nic was able to clearly explain how these experiences still impact my emotions and the way I behave and react to situations as an adult.

Nic also taught me how conflict resolution is easier for me to deal with in certain (safe) environments, for example at work I can confidently deal with conflict without concern, whereas within the relationship I couldn’t because of the fear of the response which often made me feel very anxious. I would often back down just to avoid conflict which isn’t healthy.

With the tools that I have learned from Nic and the improved understanding of how and why I respond to certain situations - I can honestly say that I am happier and more confident in myself than I have been for a very long time. If you have experienced anything similar to me I would highly recommend seeing Nic, it’s the best investment in yourself that you will ever make.

We attended couples counselling in 2024 and again in 2025 and found Nic to be so professional, so skilled and knowledgeable in his approach with a sympathetic yet focused attitude towards empowering us to strengthen our relationship and trust. We would highly recommend .

I started the sessions in one of the worst places I have ever been. I felt low and that I couldn’t see the positive in any situation. These sessions provided such a safe environment for me to fully understand why I have learnt to think the way I have and how to reframe that thinking going forwards. Every session was incredibly enlightening and it was amazing to understand how events in the past do not have to dictate the future. Understanding how to reframe my mindset has been game changing. Before these sessions I had done many with other therapists but these were exactly what I needed. If anybody is thinking about signing up, I would highly recommend The Mind Clinic.

Had an excellent experience with Nic, he was professional yet welcoming and creates a wonderful space in which you can feel safe enough to truly explore your inner world. This was my first real experience with therapy and Nic helped me achieve a breakthrough which has helped me to recognise habitual patterns of behaviour and to move beyond them. Would very much recommend seeing him if therapy is on the agenda for you.
