For a clearer future
Lomiah Nicholls BA (Hons), MBACP.
Hello, I am Lomiah. I have worked in the healthcare sector for almost twenty years, starting in nursing and palliative care. I have spent over a decade working in mental health and counselling. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Integrative Counselling and have studied Psychology at Masters level. Outside of my work life, I immerse myself in the beauty of wilderness, explore creativity and connect to nature as regularly as possible, with family, friends, pets or in solitude.
I believe we all have the capacity to overcome past issues and current challenges. However, we sometimes need assistance to gain clarity and awareness of our experiences in order to facilitate deep and lasting change. This is where counselling and psychotherapy play a vital role. By finding solutions to difficulties and overcoming emotional pain, we can build resilience, foster deeper self-trust and lead more authentic and fulfilling lives, healing from and letting go of what no longer serves us.
As a therapist, I work in an integrative way, meaning I draw on a wide range of theoretical approaches, providing the best methods for you as an individual. I believe that for change to occur, we must engage in a therapeutic relationship built on trust, understanding, empathy, and curiosity from my side, along with a willingness to participate from you.

I am dynamic and engaging. I support you in exploring your strengths, abilities, and passions, empowering you and creating a safe, contained space, for you to explore yourself. My aim is to assist you in taking the next step to developing more positive patterns for a hopeful future.
I have a special interest in neurodivergence, such as ADHD and ASD. I provide support for neurodivergent individuals or parents and caregivers of neurodivergent young people. I have many years of experience, working within charity and private sectors, supporting individuals facing acute, mild, short-term, and long-term mental health issues. I have educated children, young people, and adults on mental health and well-being.

My consultation room is designed to foster a sense of well-being, calm, creativity, focus, and privacy. Here, we can explore your current situation together. Whether you are new to counselling or have previous experiences, you will feel valued, respected, and, most importantly, heard as we work through your difficulties and help you reach a fuller sense of self.
My office can accommodate several people, and I can provide a larger room for groups of four or more. I offer flexible consultation times on weekdays.
As an ethical and responsible practitioner, I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I adhere to the Code of Conduct established by my professional body and regularly seek confidential supervision for my practice.
I am fully insured and hold an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.
