About Nigel
Nigel Jordan is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 16 years of practice. He brings a warm, respectful presence and a straightforward style that many people find easy to talk to. Nigel uses a mix of methods to respond to whatever someone brings into the room.
He helps people facing stress, anxiety and depression. He supports those coping with grief, relationship problems, trauma and abuse. He also works with issues such as low self-esteem, addiction and difficulties following separation.
Background and approach
Nigel draws on somatic ideas alongside attachment-based and client-centred approaches. He also uses cognitive behavioural and emotionally-focused methods when they suit a person's needs. Sessions focus on small, practical steps and on noticing how thoughts, feelings and the body connect.
His way of working is person-centred and collaborative. He listens closely, reflects what he hears and helps clients shape manageable goals. Practical exercises and simple awareness practices are used between sessions when helpful.
People often come for short-term support for a particular problem or for longer work to rebuild confidence and relationships. Nigel meets each person where they are and adapts his approach to fit their situation and preferences.
How Nigel’s approaches fit online therapy
Somatic-informed work pays attention to the body and simple physical awareness alongside feelings and thoughts. This can help when stress shows up as tension, sleep problems or bodily pain and is adapted for an online setting. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps with trust, closeness and communication issues. Client-centred work puts the person’s experience at the heart of each session and focuses on being understood and accepted. Nigel treats finding the right approach as a team effort. He will discuss what you want to change and try methods together to see what feels most helpful. Over time the plan can shift to match your goals and comfort level. Online sessions use video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, to keep working while travelling, or to access support from different locations. Many people find the variety helps them stay consistent with their work and keeps practical barriers to therapy lower.Frequently asked questions
