Reflections In Their Words: Experiences of Healing and Hope
Working with Claire Nicol has been a life-changing experience. From the very first session, her calm presence and compassionate approach helped me feel safe, seen, and understood. One of the most impactful parts of our work together was her use of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). This approach helped me reprocess past trauma in a way I never thought possible. With Claire’s guidance, I was able to confront painful memories without being overwhelmed by them, and I began to feel a genuine sense of release and clarity.
Claire also encouraged journaling throughout our work — a practice that helped me reflect more deeply and recognize patterns in my thoughts and emotions. She gently empowered me with practical tools and strategies that I now use daily to regulate my nervous system, set healthy boundaries, and stay grounded.
Her ability to combine deep empathy with evidence-based techniques is truly remarkable. I’m incredibly grateful for the growth and healing I’ve experienced under her care and would wholeheartedly recommend Claire to anyone looking for a therapist who truly walks beside you on the path to healing.
