About Nicola
Nicola Lomas helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and the long effects of trauma. She works with clients who are exploring sexuality and LGBT issues, and with those dealing with loneliness, guilt, shame or attachment and communication struggles. Nicola uses a calm, accepting style that aims to put people at ease from the first session.
She offers a non-judgemental space where people can talk at their own pace. Nicola listens closely and tailors the way she works to each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on practical ways to manage difficult feelings and on understanding patterns that cause pain. Her practice has a particular focus on supporting survivors of sexual abuse and rape. She approaches this work with sensitivity and an awareness of the courage it takes to seek help.
Sessions address the emotional impact of trauma and aim to rebuild self-trust and resilience over time. Nicola holds a BACP credential, which is noted as part of her professional background. She has five years of experience working with a range of concerns linked to stress and trauma.
Her spoken language for sessions is English and she is based in the United Kingdom. When someone starts with Nicola they complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions to suit them. Work is collaborative and paced to the individual, focusing on what feels safe and helpful for each person.

Focus areas and approaches
What Nicola works with
Everything Nicola lists, in their own terms.
Online support
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, try methods that seem suitable, and adjust the plan as progress is made. This helps ensure the work feels relevant and manageable for the person in front of her.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy around work and family life. Phone sessions can be a good option if bandwidth is limited, while text messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or those who prefer not to use video. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels most helpful, and a mix of formats can be used as needs change.
