Counselling & Coaching in Dorset
Counselling in Blandford and online across Dorset and the UK
Welcome to Pensieve.
Supporting teenagers (13+) and adults, including neurodivergent clients.
I’m Nicky.
It can feel incredibly hard trying to figure everything out on your own. I’m here to offer the kind of space where you can put the world on hold for a while.
As an Anxiety UK-approved, person-centred counsellor, I believe you already have an inner wisdom to navigate your life; sometimes you just need someone alongside you while you learn to trust it and regulate your nervous system.
This is your journey, and there is no judgment or expectation to do things a certain way. Just us working together in a way that feels right for you.
If you’re looking for a place to simply ‘be’, where you can work through everything you are experiencing, get to know yourself more deeply and start to find a way forward that feels right for you, I would love to hear from you.

Your Way
Sessions are shaped around how you naturally think, feel, and communicate, including differences in attention, sensory sensitivity, or how you process experiences. I work in a flexible, person-centred way, responding to what feels most helpful for you at the time.
Tailoring sessions to suit you – Helping you feel more comfortable.
Creativity in Counselling – Expressing yourself in your own way.
In-Person | Online – or a mix of both to fit varying routines.
What counselling sessions are like
Sessions may feel conversational and free-flowing, more structured, or quieter and more reflective, depending on what you need that day. We might explore thoughts, emotions, or body sensations, and sometimes use imagery or metaphor where helpful.
Session pace and structure
I have no agenda. We work at a pace that feels manageable for you, and nothing needs to be prepared in advance unless you would like to.
There is no right way. We work with whatever feels natural for you.
If you’re unsure where to start, you’re welcome to get in touch; we can figure it out together.
Fees:
I charge £60 for a 60-minute session and £75 for a 90-minute session (In-person, online and telephone counselling and Coaching). A limited number of concessionary rates are available – please enquire if this would be helpful for you.
I offer a free 30-minute, no-obligation phone or Zoom call, where you can ask any questions and get an idea of whether we might be a good fit to work together.
