About Nikki
Nikki Croce offers a calm, practical place to talk when one part of life feels stuck. She aims to help people who cope well in many areas but are held back by stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma or problems with eating and self-worth. Nikki writes plainly and works in a way that helps people set clear, achievable goals.
She uses a trauma-informed approach and adapts methods to each person. That can mean focusing on the body and sensations, bringing attention to how memories feel in the moment, or keeping work short and goal-directed to get quick relief.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative: the client and counsellor plan what to try next. Nikki has experience supporting people affected by sexual assault and domestic violence, including work around pre-trial and post-trial needs. She also supports those facing process addictions, self-harm, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, and body image or eating-related issues.
Her background includes five years of professional practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She aims to create a bounded, respectful space where clients can safely consider difficult topics. Nikki often helps people identify which areas of life are causing shame, guilt, loss of control or low self-esteem, and then work steadily toward change.
People who choose her often want direct, practical steps and a therapist who listens without judgement. She focuses on small, manageable tasks that build confidence and improve day-to-day functioning.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating a respectful space where the person sets the pace and direction. It helps people gain clarity, build confidence and feel heard without pressure.Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, often called EMDR, works with how distressing memories are held in the body and mind. In short sessions it can reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and support people recovering from abuse or other trauma.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through needs, goals and preferences and together choose or adapt approaches that feel right. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people meet face to face from wherever they are, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, and live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for quick check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care while fitting therapy into everyday life.
