About Nic
About Nic Higham.
I’m a BACP-registered counsellor offering nondual therapy online and in Melton Mowbray. My outward-facing approach starts with lived experience and makes room for ordinary life.
Professional background
Experience across mental health and private practice.
I completed my counsellor certification in 2009 and am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I spent more than a decade in the NHS, where I worked in mental health and taught mindfulness at a recovery college. I was also elected a governor and contributed to service change.
After leaving the NHS, I led mental health service improvement schemes for a national social justice charity, with a focus on improving the lives and autonomy of marginalised groups. I now have a private counselling practice in Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire, and offer both in-person and online appointments.
I also teach on the Reclaiming Wholeness Foundation Course in Non-dual Therapy, which brings psychological inquiry into an inclusive nondual approach. Read my overview of the training.
