Nicky Gibbard – Supporting Calm, Confidence and Positive Change in Taunton & Bridgwater

In a world that often feels busy and overwhelming, many people find themselves quietly carrying stress, anxiety, emotional overload or a sense of being stuck. For those seeking a gentler, more holistic way forward, Nicky Gibbard offers a calm, practical and deeply personal approach to wellbeing through Reiki, NLP, hypnotherapy and life coaching.

Based in the Taunton and Bridgwater area, Nicky works with individuals who want to feel more grounded, resilient and at ease — whether that means managing stress, rebuilding confidence, navigating emotional challenges or simply finding space to pause and breathe.

A holistic approach to real-life challenges

Nicky’s work brings together a range of complementary therapies, allowing each session to be tailored to the individual rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach. Her practice includes Reiki, a gentle energy-based therapy that promotes deep relaxation and supports the body’s natural ability to rebalance; Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), which helps clients understand and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours; and hypnotherapy, a safe and effective way of working with the subconscious mind to support lasting positive change. Alongside this, Nicky also offers life coaching and soul healing to support clarity, personal growth and emotional alignment.

Some clients come for hands-on Reiki sessions to unwind and reset, while others prefer a more conversational, goal-focused approach through NLP, hypnotherapy or coaching. Many benefit from a blend of therapies, shaped around what feels most supportive at the time.

Calm, practical and down-to-earth support

What clients often notice first is Nicky’s calm and grounded presence. Sessions are unhurried, confidential and non-judgemental, offering a rare opportunity to slow down and focus inward in a safe, supportive space.

“I work with real people dealing with real life,” says Nicky. “Stress, overwhelm, low confidence or emotional fatigue don’t mean there’s anything wrong with you. They’re often signs that something needs care, rest or a new perspective.”

Clients seek support for a wide range of reasons, including stress and burnout, anxiety, low mood, confidence and self-esteem, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, sleep issues, focus and motivation.

Supporting wellbeing in the local community

Deeply connected to the local area, Nicky is passionate about making holistic wellbeing accessible, relatable and practical — not something reserved for a particular ‘type’ of person. Alongside one-to-one sessions, she increasingly works with local businesses and organisations, offering Reiki and wellbeing support as part of a wider focus on workplace stress, resilience and mental health.

“There’s a growing recognition that people do better work — and live better lives — when they feel supported and regulated,” Nicky explains. “Sometimes small, gentle interventions can make a very big difference.”

A gentle first step

For those who are curious but unsure, Nicky is always happy to talk things through before booking. There is no pressure and no expectation to believe in anything in particular — just an openness to trying something supportive.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, at a crossroads, or simply in need of calm and clarity, Nicky Gibbard offers a welcoming space to pause, reset and move forward with confidence and balance.
