Holistic Counselling with Nicole McIntyre
Approach
Seeking counsel with Nicole isn’t about diagnosing or “fixing” what’s broken. Instead, Nicole views breakdowns as opportunities for breakthroughs—moments when unrecognised aspects of yourself are calling for acknowledgment, understanding, and integration. When there’s inner restlessness or disharmony in yourself or your relationships, it’s often a sign of vibrational dissonance. Left unresolved, this dissonance can contribute to ongoing internal unease, potentially leading to chronic disease.
Life is a journey of growth, and embracing this growth is a natural outcome of the holistic path. Nicole acts as a non-judgmental, open-minded guide, gently and compassionately encouraging self-inquiry into the aspects of yourself that need attention and integration. By meeting and accepting these parts, you become more whole, compassionate, and authentic, improving your relationships with yourself and others.
Nicole’s humanistic approach encompasses a variety of methods, including psychoanalysis, self-psychology, creative and music therapy, sound therapy, narrative therapy, dream work, astrological charting, numerology, tarot, palmistry, meridian work, Bach Flower remedies, and guided visualizations.
Through these diverse techniques, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of yourself, shed layers that no longer fit, and navigate your beliefs and inner narratives. This process of self-discovery and acceptance fosters inner peace and harmonious relationships with others.
Modalities
Nicole draws from Narrative, Rogerian and Gestalt therapies, Astrological Chemistry, Parts work and non-verbal techniques. As well as a nondirective approach that invites your curiosity and imagination to help you see things from alternate perspectives; broadening your view of situations and the sticky issues of self and others you find difficult to resolve.
Let’s unpick some of the crossed stitching on the self-repair work that some of your fractured aspects have understandably attempted in your defense. Become your own truly honest and caring best friend again.
Individual & Couples work
Nicole guides individuals and couples in reconnecting with their true selves and their desired identities, both personally and as partners.
Using a variety of holistic methods, Nicole helps you and your partner rediscover your core selves and truly see one another, fostering a deep, authentic connection. She encourages you to be your own best friend and each other’s best friend, transforming your relationship from a mere connection to a shared journey of co-creation.
Nicole offers tools to enhance your understanding of interpersonal and family dynamics, improve communication for responsive rather than reactive interactions, and activate or rekindle a genuine connection across Soul, Mind, Sex, and Heart.
Her unique and deeply supportive insights are designed to help you achieve meaningful and lasting transformation.
