Hi, I’m Nicole Bailey-Smith. I’m a Wellness Counsellor listed with the ASCHP (Reg. No. WC25/17299), and hold a BA in Psychology and Linguistics. I’ve completed 220 practical hours with Humanitas and hold a certificate in Solution-Focused Training from the Solution-Focused Training Institute.
I use a blend of approaches tailored to your needs: a Solutions-Focused approach to help you take practical steps forward, a Narrative approach to reframe your story, CBT-informed techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and DBT-inspired tools to support emotional regulation and coping in stressful moments.
I’m here to offer a warm, welcoming space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we can explore your challenges, uncover new perspectives, and take meaningful steps toward the change you want to see in your life.
