Nicholas Langley

I’m a personal therapist with a deep commitment to connecting with people and supporting them through life’s challenges. It’s fulfilling to help others make sense of their experiences and explore the possibilities available to them. I’m here to offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can safely reflect on your thoughts, emotions, and the path ahead.

I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy Practice (graduated with distinction) and completed clinical supervision training in 2016. My work is also shaped by my role as a teacher at Long Valley Therapy Training in Hythe, an accredited programme preparing the next generation of therapists. Teaching challenges me to continually refine my understanding of therapeutic skills and share that knowledge with others.

Rooted in a relational approach and influenced by existential ideas, my practice is guided by a few core beliefs:

• There are always possibilities we haven’t yet considered.
• Our past influences us, but it doesn’t define us. We can continue to grow and evolve.
• There’s no perfect way to live – finding what works best for each of us is a process of trial and error.
• We all have the capacity to live rich and meaningful lives, especially when we engage with our own existence and take responsibility for it.
• Connection to people, nature, and the systems around us is essential to being human.
• Diversity is a natural and essential part of humanity – each person brings a unique perspective and experience that enriches our world.

My style is typically non-directive, embracing the complexities of life without pushing for rigid structure. I aim to help you accept the unchangeable, explore the possibilities, and find a way forward that feels authentic for you. I believe we are all navigating an inherently complex existence as best we can.
