Yuliia Nicholls
Experienced psychodynamic counsellor aiding emotional recovery
About Yuliia
Yuliia Nicholls works from psychodynamic and client-centred perspectives to help people make sense of their feelings and life events. She uses straightforward conversation to uncover patterns from the past that influence present worries. Yuliia speaks English, Russian and Ukrainian and sees adults in the United Kingdom.
She holds BACP accreditation and has five years of professional experience. In sessions she listens with curiosity and without judgement. Conversations focus on what matters now while also looking at how earlier experiences shape current reactions.
Background and approach
This helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief or stress to notice what is getting in the way and to try new ways of coping. Yuliia has particular experience with trauma from childhood and war, and with challenges linked to migration and culture change. She also supports people facing bereavement, separation or career crossroads.
Practical tools from solution-focused work are used alongside deeper psychodynamic reflection when helpful. Her approach treats the client as the expert of their own life. Sessions combine listening, gentle challenge and short-term goals when those are useful.
People can expect a calm, accepting space to talk through painful memories and current problems. Therapy is offered online by video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging. Sessions form part of a subscription plan that can be cancelled at any time.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled according to therapist availability.

How Yuliia's approaches work online
Psychodynamic therapy helps people notice how early experiences shape current emotions and reactions. Online sessions give space to reflect on patterns, memories and relationships so deeper causes of worry can be understood and discussed.Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and acceptance. In this way the therapist follows the client's pace, responding to what feels most important and helping clients draw on their own strengths to tackle stress, low self-esteem or grief.
Solution-focused ideas are used to set short-term goals and try practical steps between sessions. These techniques can help with coping strategies for anxiety, problem-solving at work or quick adjustments after major life changes.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Yuliia will talk through goals, preferences and what feels useful, then adapt methods over time. That collaborative process means the focus can shift as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video suits deeper conversation when visual contact helps, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can be used for brief check-ins or flexible scheduling. These options aim to make therapy easier to fit into daily life while keeping the therapeutic focus intact.
