PSYCHOTHERAPY AND COUNSELLING IN THE NOTTINGHAM AREA
Tailored counselling sessions that help you address and manage life's problems so you can feel better, realise your potential and live a happier, more fulfilled life.
HI I'M VICKI...
As a therapeutic counsellor in Nottingham (NG3) I offer counselling and psychotherapy for people in and around the surrounding areas. Sessions are held in a quiet garden cabin.
I am committed to helping you find some relief from your emotional suffering, and I will also provide a clear focus helping you name and address your difficulties.
I will help you find meaningful ways of improving your relationships with yourself and others. I adopt a ‘whole-person approach’ which means you can speak about anything that troubles you and I will work with you to make sense of your challenges and find better more meaningful ways of addressing problems.
I truly believe in the power of face-to-face counselling sessions, however, l also provide online therapy sessions where necessary, for those who prefer this.
To arrange an initial telephone or online consultation contact me here, straight away, or for more information, please read on.
WHAT CAN I HELP YOU WITH
The pressures of modern life can be hard to deal with, so it’s no surprise that many of us struggle and feel overwhelmed with problems at times.
It’s understandable to feel this way - talking things through with someone unrelated to your life can help you gain insight into your problems and find ways to come to terms with what can't be changed and make changes where you can.
If you are not sure which way to turn and need to talk to someone then you can reach out to me. Below are the most common areas I work with. If your issue isn’t listed, it doesn’t mean we can’t work together, so please get in touch and let’s have a chat.

HOW INTEGRATIVE PSYCHOTHERAPY WORKS
There are many different types of counselling and psychotherapy. One type of therapy might suit you better than another. My approach is a developmentally based, relationally focused integrative counsellor. This approach means there is a strong emphasis on our therapeutic relationship. In the context of this supportive relationship, I will aim to identify, understand and work with you to address troubling emotions, thoughts, and behaviours.
Our integrative counselling sessions are developmentally based. This means that we will consider how your past experiences, especially during childhood, and all the various stages of your life have shaped who you are today.
Integrative psychotherapy draws from different counselling theories and approaches, integrating those methodologies and techniques in a unique way that are tailored specifically for each individual client.
The way I work is for our counselling sessions to take a holistic, whole-person approach which looks closely at all your relationships to understand how these might be contributing to your current thoughts, feelings, and challenges.
If you feel that this therapy approach is what you’re looking for, please contact me to book your free introductory phone or online consultation.
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME
While your therapy sessions are all about you, we’ll be working together so it’s important that you feel a good connection and a sense that you can trust me.
People often describe me as being calm, empathic and down to earth. I’m also organized and professional, and you can be assured that therapy sessions with me will be treated with confidentiality.
Although we do not know each other yet, please believe me when I say I care and want you to feel better because I genuinely do.
My life journey has taught me much, and after more than twenty-five years of experience working in people support roles, I came to feel that helping others is my true calling in life.
I have chosen a path where I believe I can make a positive difference in people's lives. I gained my professional qualifications in psychotherapy and founded Vicki King Therapy to offer counselling services and therapy in and around the Nottingham area.
MY FEES
FREE
15 min
I offer a free 15-minute introductory phone or online consultation.
£55
each session
Counselling sessions are weekly and last for 50 minutes, and cost £55 each.
Clients will be invoiced for weekly sessions each month in advance, with payment by bank transfer.
If for some reason a client cannot attend a booked session, then one week’s notice is required to cancel the appointment. In case of emergency or illness, we can look to rearrange the session for a mutually suitable time, or conduct our session online.
If at anytime I feel that I am not the best person to help you, I will offer to help you find a therapist who might be better for you. We can always discuss the contract between us and I will always seek to resolve any problems in a timely way. I offer short, medium and long-term therapy; this means a few weeks, a few months or a few years.
WHERE ARE THERAPY SESSIONS HELD?
I believe the setting and location of therapy sessions is important as well as the relationship between the counsellor and client.
Nestled in the greenery of my back garden, the summer house is warm, comfortable and surrounded by nature.
Our disconnect with nature can negatively impact our mental well-being, and this therapy room helps to bring the healing power of nature into our sessions.
I hope you feel as calm and centred as I do whenever I am working within its space.
