Hello! I’m Nikki, a writer, speaker, trainer and qualified BACP- registered therapist running a fully booked private practice.

Alongside my therapy work, I’ve been a professional writer for almost 20 years and a corporate trainer for 12. I have a background in journalism and copywriting, and have even written a crime novel.

That cocktail of experience has taught me a thing or two about the powerful intersection between language and mental health: like that creative writing can materially boost our wellbeing. And that workplaces could go so much further in terms of supporting their teams' mental health and communication skills.

Since 2013, I have trained people at the UN, Barclays, Cisco, HSBC, NatWest, Savills, Sainsbury’s, universities and the government in better writing, storytelling and presentation skills, and had a stint as global head of training at brand language consultancy The Writer.

The 20,000+ people I’ve trained give me consistent 5* feedback.
