Nancy Cannon-Ikurusi

Nancy Cannon-Ikurusi is a counsellor who helps people facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, anxiety, stress and the strain of life changes. She works with career worries, anger, family problems and feelings of isolation and loneliness. She aims to respond with respect, sensitivity and compassion in every session.

Nancy uses a tailored approach rather than a one-size-fits-all model. She adapts conversations and plans to match each person's situation and goals. Sessions are practical and focused on small steps people can use between meetings.

Her background includes seven years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She draws on that experience to support people through difficult transitions and relationship challenges.

In sessions she listens for patterns that keep people feeling stuck, such as attachment worries or control issues. From there she works with clients on communication, boundary-setting and rebuilding self-worth. The work can include practical exercises and goal-setting alongside open conversation.

Nancy also supports people dealing with career uncertainty, life purpose questions and forgiveness work. Young adults and women’s issues are among the topics she often addresses. She encourages steady progress and helps people build skills to feel more connected and confident.

Approaches that guide online counselling and support

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to shape the work in straightforward ways. One common approach emphasises understanding attachment and relationship patterns. This helps people see how early connections influence current trust, closeness and communication challenges.

Another approach focuses on building self-esteem and practical coping skills. That involves short, goal-focused tasks and exercises to try between sessions, aimed at improving confidence and reducing anxious or avoidant reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and day-to-day life. Plans are adjusted as work progresses so the style stays helpful and realistic.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around busy schedules, reduce travel time and allow for quick check-ins when needed. It can also allow sessions without being on camera if that suits someone better, or shorter phone-style check-ins for brief support. Registered or accredited professionals can help you weigh these options and choose what will work best for your circumstances.
