Niki Follina, MBACP (Snr Accred), highly experienced Counsellor and Supervisor - Person-Centred Therapists

With over 20 years of experience in the field, I offer counselling and supervision face-to-face and via video call or telephone. As a BACP Registered and Senior Accredited Practitioner, I have extensive experience of counselling adults, young people, couples and groups.  This was gained through many years working in the NHS and local authority, in private practice and through my work in the third sector with organizations like Mind, Age UK, Shetland Bereavement Support Service and Women's Aid. Clients present for a range of reasons, including relationships, loss, abuse, low mood, stress and anxiety, isolation. I work with individuals and couples presenting with a wide range of difficulties, and specialize in relationship and abuse issues.  I am also experienced in brief work and listen to your specific expectations and need with a view to working at your own pace within a non-judgemental and trusting relationship.   I aim to offer you a safe space to tell your story and be heard, and to reflect and work out a way forward for you in your life, freeing you to work towards reaching your personal potential. 

I qualified as a Counselling Supervisor in 2009 (through WPF), and bring extensive experience of offering supervision (and supervision of supervision) to both trainee and qualified Counsellors/Psychotherapists, including those working towards BACP Accreditation and Senior Accreditation. I hope to meet you at your stage of development as a Counsellor and offer both support and challenge to facilitate you in becoming the best therapist you can be.
