Naa Tiokor Noi, BACP

Naa Tiokor Noi is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and depression. Naa describes clients as the experts in their own stories and focuses on practical ways to move forward.

She aims for straightforward conversations that highlight a client’s existing strengths. Sessions tend to centre on clear problems and achievable steps rather than abstract theory. This makes the work feel focused and action-oriented for many people.

Naa draws on Client-Centred Therapy to keep the dialogue grounded in the client’s perspective. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain stress or anger. Psychodynamic ideas are brought in to look at longer-term patterns that may come from past relationships.

Typical issues she helps people with include coping with life changes, relationship difficulties, grief, intimacy-related concerns, anger, self-esteem and career stress. She also works with people dealing with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, compassion fatigue and chronic health stress.

Additional areas of focus include attachment and abandonment questions, family of origin problems, codependency, communication and control issues, BDSM and kink-related matters, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, and trauma recovery. Naa takes a practical, person-focused approach and supports clients as they try out new ways of handling difficult feelings.
