Hello, I’m Nicole

Nicole Loo, registered counsellor in Moonee Ponds

Nicole Loo
ACA Registered Counsellor
Master of Counselling

I offer a calm, supportive space where you can slow down, talk things through, and feel heard without pressure or judgement.
In my counselling room, no topic is off limits!

I take an integrative person-centred approach predominantly utilising CBT, EFT, and ACT. As every individual is unique, I tailor my approach according to what is suited to each client.

In our sessions, we can talk through what you’re experiencing, make sense of patterns, and build practical ways to cope with emotions, stress, and day-to-day challenges. Over time, this can help you feel more grounded, more in control, and more able to engage in your life and relationships.

I have a calm and approachable style, and I aim to create a space where you feel safe to be yourself. I value honesty, respect, and working together in a way that supports your individual needs, goals, and experiences.

Whether you’re looking for support with something specific or just need a space to talk and reconnect with yourself, you’re welcome here. Together, we can explore what’s going on for you and find ways forward that feel manageable and meaningful.
