Nidhish Parikh, BACP

Nidhish Parikh is a BACP-registered integrative counsellor who works with adults, adolescents and couples to address a wide range of emotional and relational challenges. He combines approaches to suit each person or partnership, helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, low mood, low self-esteem and stress while also offering support for trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and parenting concerns. He also works with matters such as anger, career questions, compassion fatigue and life transitions where everyday coping feels difficult.

His practice includes focused help for attachment and abandonment issues, communication and control problems, commitment worries and separation or divorce. He supports people dealing with neurodiversity and ADHD, body image and shame, sexual identity and gender dysphoria, as well as the emotional impact of racism, bullying and isolation. For couples he addresses communication breakdowns, conflicts, trust and intimacy difficulties, financial pressures, parental differences and the challenge of rediscovering quality time together. When separation is chosen, he can assist couples in seeking an amicable and dignified ending.

Working integratively means he adapts techniques to meet the needs of each client, maintaining empathy, openness and respect without judgement. He has been described as supportive, caring, compassionate and good humoured. As a BACP-registered practitioner - BACP is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - he adheres to the BACP Ethical Framework and places client needs at the centre of his work. Taking the first step can be difficult; he aims to support people through that process so they can make meaningful, lasting change.
