Nico is a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist who works in both English and Spanish. Nico has been working as a therapist for eighteen years, with over ten years in his own practice, and he has collaborated with various charities and third sector organisations. He is trained in integrative humanistic approaches to counselling, meaning that he works flexibly and responsively with clients, using various approaches according to the issues each individual brings along.

Owen has an active interest in the areas of gender, sexuality, and relationship diversity (GSRD) and how presenting issues (e.g. stigma, internalised shame, oppression, discrimination) can impact on mental health and psychological well-being. He sees gender intersecting with other aspects of a person’s experience (e.g. race, age, sexuality, class, mental health, to name but a few) and so he explores gender identity in the context of a client’s background and wider world. Together Owen will explore with you how to navigate this wider world in ways that are safe enough, consensual and comfortable for you. He also works with a broad range of presenting issues, such as anxiety, depression, stress, bereavement, grief & loss, loneliness, bullying, confidence & self-esteem, and with relationship or work-related issues.
