Coaching & Counselling Testimonials
Examples of what clients say about working with me.Â
As you can imagine, because of the nature of our work, though generous in sharing their experience of working with me, some of the people I have worked with wish to remain anonymous.Â
Impact of coaching and counselling with Nic
If you're wondering if I'm the right person to work with you, no problem. Take a few minutes to hear from people who chose me as their coach or counsellor.
I've personally invested thousands of pounds in personal therapy and coaching—and Netflix subscriptions, for that matter—so I know the value of recommendations.
Now, because of the nature of my work, not everybody's okay with sharing their experience of working with me on my site, so I'll share what I can. With their consent, of course!
Once done, if you think it'd be good to have a chat about what working together might look like and if we'd be a good fit, go ahead and book a consultation call.

"It was really helpful to talk to Nic. He put me at ease and made me feel free to talk openly about how I was feeling. He was good at summarising what I said and highlighting key things. At appropriate times, he gave me some helpful questions to think about. He helped me reach some helpful conclusions in understanding my situation and moving forward in it."
- Philip
"I highly recommend Nic as a counsellor. He is so welcoming and non-judgmental, and he will tailor his approach to work with your desired goals for the counselling. I have learned an incredible amount about myself and felt so comfortable at all times to share with Nic. Thank you very much again, Nic!"
-Â Kate
"Nic is a very warm yet focused therapist. He keeps you relaxed while getting to grips with the issues. He's functional in using his training and experiences, which for me was great as I like to know the science behind our minds, but he also relates back to the real world, which makes understanding much easier. Overall, I felt at ease and very comfortable allowing Nic to help me, for which I am grateful."

"I've become a better leader, husband, and father."
"I looked forward to every coaching session with Nic, knowing I was going to make progress in my personal and professional life. I've become a better leader, husband, and father through Nic's patient and exploratory approach to helping me reach my goals."
Darren, Senior Educational Leader (LinkedIn)
"When I first started to speak to Nic, I was very unsure on the use of therapy or even the benefits, but by speaking through things, having a place where I felt safe, and I could be completely honest with myself, I was able to work on my own issues and also question some of my own deep-rooted beliefs that were unhealthy to myself, and it allowed me to view situations that I had been through in a different way and my perceptions on those situations to be changed to allow me to grow without having that weight on my shoulders any more. Nic was extremely honest and would always admit when he didn't know things and tailor his sessions based on what I most needed and would be most beneficial at the time."
-Â Chris
"Nic's been a great help to me in organising my thoughts during what has been a very low time. He offers a rounded perspective, important considerations, and it is clear his experience has left him with a wealth of knowledge and resources, which he shares in between sessions. Overall, Nic has a calm and judgment-free persona and is able to read the room well."
- Anon
"I found that Nic was a very welcoming, calm, and relaxed person to speak with. Since it was my first time counselling I was slightly nervous about speaking to someone I didn't know about my personal issues. However, after the exploration call, I felt I didn't need to feel nervous. Now that I've finished my 6 sessions with Nic, I feel very confident and reassured about my issues. Thanks Nic!"
- Joshua
"I finish each session energised."
"Since I've started coaching sessions with Nic, they've become invaluable. Things are so much clearer in my work life and also in my personal goals. I finish each session energised and ready to keep moving forward."

-Â Micah (Year 11 Student)
"Very helpful sessions that assist in scratching beneath the surface. Nic provides a space that you can feel confident sharing, with an aura of professionalism. I appreciated that he was not afraid to challenge subconscious biases that may often go unchecked, which I found helpful."
- Ellis (Year 13 Student)

"Approachable yet firm, open, and challenging."
"Nic is incredibly approachable yet firm, open, and challenging. He was able to let me explore things fully without losing focus on what my targets and goals were. He held me accountable for my use of language and called me in on any discrepancies he saw in my thinking!"
Daniel, Performance Coach, Educator, and EDI Consultant (LinkedIn)
"Nic has been a great help to me in organising my thoughts during what has been a very low time. He offers a rounded perspective and important considerations, and it is clear his experience has left him with a wealth of knowledge and resources, which he shares in between sessions. Over all, he has a calm and judgment-free persona, and he is able to read the room very well. I would recommend him to anyone."
-Â Anon
"Nic provided a great service. I felt Nic was empathetic; he didn’t pressure me to talk about anything that I didn’t feel I needed to discuss, yet he was extremely helpful and insightful."
-Â Ben
"I was originally expecting more sessions with Nic; however, I felt like the sessions I had with him were so productive that I felt I no longer needed his support after following all his advice. I highly recommend Nic, and if I need therapy in the future, I will look no further. Thank you for helping me on my journey."
-Â Adrian
"A great business decision."
"A great business decision—Nic's coaching helped increase confidence in my abilities and unlock my potential, enabling me to take my business to the next level. When you run a business by yourself, it's great to have someone in your corner."
Kingsley, Craftsman, Kingsley Leather (Website)
"Working with Nic has been tremendously helpful. He provides a comfortable and safe environment to openly discuss all things, no matter how difficult. Nic does not make you feel judged and makes it very easy to unload."
-Â Toby
"Before starting counselling, I was dubious about how helpful it would be. The idea of opening up, being honest, and showing “warts and all” felt uncomfortable, and I didn’t know where to start. Nick made the process seamless. Nothing was too big or too small an issue; there was no judgement when I thought there might be. He was easy to talk to and to be honest with. The feedback, advice, and listening have changed me. It’s made me more durable as a person, happier, and a more engaged father and husband. I’m so glad I decided to have counselling."
