Start Here
Everything starts with an initial session.
Whichever direction you feel drawn to—recovery and regulation, or performance and capacity—the first step is to meet 1:1, understand what’s going on, and experience the work for yourself. You’ll leave with clarity on the best next step, be it weekly work with me, a programme, or a tech package.
Two Possible First Steps
Option 1
Performance and Recovery Consultation
For recovery + regulation + performance psychology, with one tech element
90 minutes – £140
In this session, we will:
-
map your current stress + recovery patterns (psychology and physiology)
-
make a plan for growing your resilience
-
run one technology (Neurofeedback, IHHT or EMS, based on goals and suitability)
- agree your best next steps (weekly follow-on sessions, a technology package or a programme).
Option 2
Technology Starter Session
For people who already want a supported recovery-tech approach
1 hour – £100
This is for you if you’re mainly interested in Neurofeedback / IHHT /EMS and want a starter session to trial this practitioner-led, recovery technology approach and see if it’s right for you. We’ll do a shorter suitability assessment, clarify goals, and run your first tech session so you know what to expect and how we’ll progress.
What Happens After The First Step?
After the initial meeting, you can choose weekly sessions for a more psychologically supportive element, so you can find your way back to resilience, or you can sign up for a practitioner-led- led, recovery-tech package to boost your physiology for deeper recovery and a return to regulation and performance.
Practitioner-led Technology Packages
Structured training for recovery and resilience
£700-1000
10 sessions IHHT Package – £700
10 sessions Neurofeedback Package – £700
10 sessions EMS Package – £700
10 sessions Combined NF and IHHT Package – £1,000
These are practitioner-led training packages using neurofeedback, IHHT and/or EMS—guided, supported, and adjusted by me throughout. I help you make sense of what your system is doing, refining what helps, and recommending how to support the process outside of sessions.
Available after your initial Starter Session. Sessions are scheduled once or twice weekly for 10 sessions to support adaptation and measurable change.
Weekly Combined Stress and Recovery Psychology & Technology Sessions
£140 – 90-minute sessions with psychology + one technology
These are weekly combined sessions that integrate stress and recovery psychology with one technology (Neurofeedback, IHHT, or EMS) to support nervous system regulation, recovery, and stress resilience.
Over years of combining psychological work with physiological tools, I’ve found this integrated approach creates deeper, more embodied regulation and change than talking alone.
Testimonials
If you’re wondering what it’s like to work with me, these reviews give a sense of the outcomes clients commonly describe after training, regulation and recovery capacity.
Since doing combined IHHT and neurofeedback sessions, I’ve noticed that I am much calmer in making daily decisions in my business. It’s much easier to take everything in my stride. As an added bonus, my hormones don’t seem to grip me each month either.
After my first session of neurofeedback, I had my best sleep in months. Within a few weeks, I could sense my mind becoming calmer, more centred and less reactive to everyday stressors. Neurofeedback is the only approach I have found that is able to challenge and recalibrate deeply rooted, subconscious thought patterns and create a new, more stable mind environment
Nicola has been such a supportive, energetic and wise force through my health journey. I had Intermittent Hypoxic-Hyperoxic Training (IHHT) – the treatments were very relaxing and helped significantly with a pain condition. They also improved my fitness (running times) and energy levels; and I noticed a better hormonal balance in my body. I also had neurofeedback, and this really helped with anxiety, overthinking and chronic pain.
My husband and I rented a Neuroptimal neurofeedback machine for two months so we could use it at home. We were looking for help with a very stressful and busy time in our business and wanted to find a way to manage the stress and overwhelm we were experiencing. We both became progressively calmer and found we had more capacity to deal with the challenges we were facing. This meant that the stress didn’t take over our lives
I had a series of Neurofeedback sessions over 4 month period. I found they calmed my nervous system and I generally felt more relaxed and less reactionary. The sessions also provided focus for work, where, during busy periods, I can sometimes feel overwhelmed. Normally I would use exercise as a release for this but Neurofeedback provided the same sort of release but by just sitting and listening to music. I would recommend Neurofeedback to anyone wishing to improve focus, calm the nervous system and train the brain as well as the body.
NeurOptimal neurofeedback has been an invaluable resource in my journey to healing and emotional regulation after many years of unhealthy relationships and stress. I can’t recommend neurofeedback enough! It will give you the mental space to be who you want to be. I also can’t recommend Nicola highly enough. Her compassion, wisdom, and body/brain knowledge have been key in my progress.
