Meet Nicky
For more than 30 years, I've been doing something simple but powerful: Listening.
Intelligently. Compassionately. Without judgement.
Not as a guru. But as a teacher, writer, and guide who understands how people navigate real lives.
My work is grounded, intuitive, practical, and rooted in a lifelong fascination with the human experience: how we grow, how we make meaning, and how we find our way back to ourselves when life becomes overwhelming.
A Path Shaped by Experience
As a teacher, I've realised the importance of being a sensitive 'ear' to the student voice.
As a writer, I discovered the power of story, symbol, and metaphor, and how they can reveal what the conscious mind struggles to articulate.
As a Tarot practitioner since my twenties, I've witnessed countless moments when something drops into place for someone, not just through prediction, but through clarity.
This blend of intelligence, intuition, and grounded presence forms the heart of everything I do.
Why I’m Different
30+ years of practice — insight shaped by decades, not trends
Teacher & guide — trained to help people discover their own inner answers
Mindfulness-grounded — anchored in presence, not escapism
Cornwall-rooted — shaped by landscape, pilgrimage, and a sense of quiet continuity
Psychologically attuned — I understand stress, burnout, and the modern mind
Why I Approach Tarot This Way
Modern life and its pressures create a growing need for us to be able to spend time searching through our complicated lives to bring about some order from the chaos.
This is where Tarot comes in. Over thirty years of sitting with people, I've learned that most of us already know more than we think. What's usually missing isn't answers, it's a quiet, honest space to hear our own thinking clearly. That's what I offer: full attention, real listening, and a way of reading the cards that speaks to what's actually happening in your life.
I won't rush you past what you're ready to hear, and I'll always tell you what I see, honestly and with care.
The Cornwall Connection
Cornwall has called to me since my teenage years. It is a land shaped by pilgrims, seekers, storytellers, and those drawn to places of quiet knowing.
Now living within this ancient landscape, I work in a way that reflects its character: still, spacious, reflective, and deeply rooted.
I understand what it means to feel burnt out, overwhelmed, or disconnected, because I've seen it in my students, my clients, and at times, in myself. This is why my guidance feels different to many people.
It's grounded clarity, held with compassion.
I live within the county's ancient, spiritual landscape, a place where seekers have journeyed for millennia.
I understands this experience — and knows how to guide you back to yourself…
What People Feel When They Work With Me
A sense of calm. A sense of being truly seen. A sense of returning to themselves.
Because I doesn’t tell you who you are. I help you understand what has always been there.
