SERVICES
Welcome to Nicola Lewis
“Encouraging balance to body, mind and soul”
through Counselling, Psychotherapy and Reflexology
Has anyone ever asked you what do you really want and you really didn’t know! This is the place to explore what it is that makes you happy, uncomfortable, excited or sad.
Using various Psychotherapy techniques such as Cognitive Behaviour therapy, we can explore together ….. Why it is that you think the way you do, What thoughts and beliefs are behind the way you behave and the decisions you make. We can explore changes you are ready to make and the changes you want to leave for another time, and how best to make those changes comfortable for all concerned.
Anger Management, available for Children/young teens……also Adults!!!
“Gain control of strong emotions, learn to adjust behaviour patterns, become better at expressing how you feel and get the outcome you would prefer”.
Not quite ready for talking?
Reflexology can help here too! Without saying a word, Reflexology will help any stress or anxiety simply melt away. Because emotions are often locked away in the body, it makes sense that the power of touch and specific gentle manipulation of the feet will ease physical tensions and also emotions. Soothing anger and lifting heavy moods!
Reflexology I enjoy as it helps on so many levels. Often bringing pain relief, increased mobility and strengthened immune system. Reflexology is an extremely good all round treatment for many things.
“ I feel like I am myself again, I have stepped off the merry go round of life, gathered myself up and relaxed - refreshed, ready to step back into life again “ a previous reflexology client.
Reflexology is done with the feet (though can be done on the hands, ears, head and face!) and whilst the person is fully clothed, offering a very safe and comfortable atmosphere where both client and therapist can be open and honest and it is from here the therapy is mapped out on a personal level to help the client with their own individual needs. All sorts of conversation takes place as and when it arises often helping clarify a situation with the client, or acknowledging a situation which then removes a ‘blockage’ from the feet and so easing discomfort in the body!! OR, peace and quiet reign offering a chill out session easily.
“I have found Reflexology increasingly beneficial emotionally, often lifting a clients mood and moving them on to a better way of being within themselves, this is what seems to keep them coming back again and again.”

A little bit about me!
Due to many hurdles and experiences in my life I have often asked Why?
My journey for the answer to this question has given me experience and understanding of the body/mind connection, subtle energies, chakras, meditation and spiritual healing/reiki, crystal healing, aura soma, Australian bush flower essences and tarot/runes. Also it is the reason I went on to learn Counselling/Pschotherapy and Reflexology. I attend Yoga classes and meditation meetings for my own growth and wellbeing.
I also enjoy the feeling of having some tools or knowledge with which I can help myself, family and friends to regain some balance, emotionally and physically. Reflexology I love as I can help tummy troubles in my children, headaches and back or shoulder problems that we all suffer from time to time. Of course Reflexology is very useful too when someone is experiencing long term illness in whatever way, as the power of touch is incredibly powerful and soothing and the precise pressures of Reflexology can focus in on certain areas to encourage healing.
I have been employed part time within a drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre where complementary therapies were a valued part of the clinical environment. This was a 5 star residential centre and I feel very fortunate to have been able to work there. I have been working self employed on a part time basis too for approx 10 years, fitting it in around family. Recently I have become a volunteer at the Maidstone Mediation Centre, assisting people in reaching agreeable solutions to disputes and problems, including neighbour disputes, parent and teen disputes and victim and offender cases.
