What clients say about Dr Nick

Dr Nick has taught me to how to let go of something that had been controlling my life for nearly 10 years and I will be eternally grateful to him for that.
There are still challenging days – of course – but when they come, I have his calm, reasoning and reassuring voice in my mind telling me to take a breath and let go of what I can’t control. I would highly recommend Dr Nick’s services to anyone ‘stuck’ in a place they’re tired of being.

- Past Client

I came to Dr Nick at a difficult time, and after I had tried counselling before, which hadn’t helped. I wasn’t sure about online sessions, but he made it seamless with flexible times, a clear structure, and a follow-up note after each session so I knew what to practise. From the first appointment, I felt seen rather than judged. He explained what was happening in clear, simple terms and gave me tools that actually worked between sessions. I felt supported in between, too, as he replied swiftly to emails. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a great therapist outside Birmingham.

- Past Client

Dr Nick has been truly exceptional in helping me navigate a journey towards freedom from relentless, ruminating thoughts. His gentle , kind and non- judgmental approach has equipped me with practical tools to manage them in a way I never thought possible. Above all, he has helped me carve out a path towards reclaiming a sense of control. A big thank you!

- Past Client

Dr Nick is an excellent choice. He is an experienced and supportive professional with great insights. He has guided me through some very difficult times, always ensuring that help is available helping me to improve my mental health and wellbeing. He offers both face to face and online sessions, allowing flexibility when working away or unable to attend in person. He always made sure that any concerns were addressed, sessions and therapy plan were adjusted to suit my needs. I would highly recommend him as a clinical psychologist.

I’ve been working with Dr Nick for a while now and honestly couldn’t recommend him more. He’s warm, down to earth, and clearly knows his stuff. I felt at ease really quickly, which isn’t always easy, and the support has made a real difference. It’s been great having the option to meet either online or in Birmingham, really convenient and flexible. If you’re looking for someone who’s both professional and genuinely caring, Nick is a fantastic choice.

Our family cannot express enough gratitude for the outstanding care, support and guidance provided by Dr Nick. From the initial contact to discuss our loved one’s (R) needs and whether he felt he would be able to help, we were made to feel at ease and confident that this type of support was the best for R.
From the very first session, it was evident that they possess not only professional expertise but also genuine compassion, which helped R navigate through their challenges.[…] It feels like R has a whole new outlook on life. If you are a family member seeking support for your loved one, we wholeheartedly recommend Dr Nick – he’s a bit of a legend in our eyes!

I cannot recommend Dr Nick highly enough. From a very early stage, I felt heard, understood, and supported. His deep expertise, calm presence, and compassionate approach made it easy to open up and work through some difficult issues. He helped me gain real insight, develop healthier coping strategies, and make meaningful changes in my life. If you’re looking for a skilled and genuinely caring clinical psychologist, this is someone you can absolutely trust.

- Past Client

Nick has been my therapist for the past 3 years now and I wouldn’t be able to do life without him. Through my sessions with Nick, I have become more self aware, compassionate and learnt techniques that help me break through negative thought patterns; allowing me to evolve into a better and mentally healthier version of me :)

- Past Client

Nick the one of the most understanding and caring psychologists you could wish to meet. He comprehends and understands complex emotions and invites alternative perspectives when processing. Nick truly cares about his patients wellbeing providing empathy and compassion while offering tools to help refocus the mind in a more positive way. For me personally he has provided much needed support through some very dark times – through listening and inviting alternative viewpoints, for which I am so very grateful.

- Past Client

I could not speak highly enough of Dr Nick – he is compassionate, patient and empathetic but also challenges me to think differently and try new approaches in a safe space. He has always shown me kindness and sincerity, and I enjoy even our more difficult sessions. I still look forward to every session and seeking his guidance as I navigate my thoughts and feelings. Getting in touch with him was the best thing I ever did!
