Experience Healing through conversation and movement

Virtual and In-Person Counselling within Surrey, BC

ESSENCE
Hello & Welcome

Thank you for being here. My name is Nikkol Adams and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor offering in-person and virtual therapy in South Surrey, BC. I am a trauma-informed therapist with specialization in somatic and talk therapies aimed to address your specific concerns for the purpose of healing and self-growth.

With over 10 years of experience supporting individuals with unique mental health concerns, I have developed a deep passion for bringing congruence between the mind-body connection and direct my energy towards helping individuals understand their emotional and physical experience through the use of conversation and movement.

Essence of Self

My Values

It can be difficult reaching out for support and giving yourself the space to reflect on what you need. For that, I recognize the courage it has taken for you to get here and the willingness to be open. I believe understanding your human experience is the path towards healing. Therefore, wonder, acceptance, and compassion are core values in my approach. When we become more self-reflective towards our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being, and learn how to reveal our self-expression, we are more capable of creating long lasting change in our life.

What It's Like To Work With Me . . .

I believe therapy should feel like a real, human conversation—one where you feel seen, heard, and genuinely understood. My approach weaves together evidence-based practices with a gentle, compassionate presence, free from judgment. It’s not about fixing you, but about walking alongside you as we make sense of what’s been weighing on you and find ways to move forward. Our work together is shaped by who you are, how you understand yourself, and what has or hasn’t supported you in the past. I take a holistic, integrative approach, honouring the many layers that make you who you are—your relationships, experiences, thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and beliefs.

I believe healing happens in relationship, in moments where someone is willing to sit with you, stay open and curious, and help you hold your story with tenderness and care. Through deep listening and attuned presence, I aim to create a space where your experiences are not only validated, but gently explored. Together, we’ll focus on building insight, self-compassion, and practical tools you can carry into your everyday life—so you feel more grounded, more capable, and more aligned with what truly matters to you.

I offer both virtual and in-person counselling sessions in Surrey, BC, working with adolescents and adults in individual therapy. I warmly welcome people from all walks of life—across cultures, faiths, gender and sexual expressions, ages, and lived experiences—and approach my work through a culturally informed lens that honors the uniqueness of each person’s story. I believe the relationship we build together is a meaningful part of the healing itself, and I gently encourage you to choose a counsellor who feels like the right fit—someone who resonates with who you are, where you’ve been, and where you hope to go.
