About Yuliia
Yuliia Nicholls works from a psychodynamic perspective and blends it with client-centred and solution-focused ideas to help people make sense of difficult experiences. She is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom and uses English, Russian and Ukrainian in sessions. Yuliia focuses on practical ways to feel steadier while also looking at how past experiences affect today.
Her approach begins by listening closely to what matters to each person.
Background and approach
She helps people identify patterns that keep causing stress, anxiety or low mood. From there she supports steps to reduce distress and to try new ways of coping. Yuliia has five years of professional experience and draws on that work with people affected by trauma and loss.
She has a particular interest in childhood trauma, war-related trauma and the mental health challenges faced by veterans. She also supports people dealing with bereavement and psychological effects of migration. Many clients come for help with anxiety, panic, depression, low self-esteem and loneliness.
She also works with issues such as perfectionism, relationship strain, separation and attachment difficulties. Sessions often include practical strategies alongside exploring underlying causes. Therapy with Yuliia is collaborative.
She treats the person as an expert in their own life while offering questions, reflections and exercises to test new ways of living. The aim is to help people feel more in control, find clearer direction and move forward from painful moments. To begin, Yuliia asks people to describe their current concerns so she can tailor sessions to individual goals.
She uses a mix of talking, focused reflection and solution-oriented tasks to support change over time.

Online support
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how early experiences and recurring patterns shape present feelings and relationships. It helps people who want to understand the roots of anxiety, depression or attachment difficulties by linking past events with current reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then try methods that suit those needs. Decisions about emphasis - more reflective or more practical - are made collaboratively and can change over time.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when a longer conversation is needed, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer written reflection. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or relocation while keeping the same therapeutic aims.
