My name is Niccolo J. Tiangco, but you can call me “Colo” for short. I graduated with BA and MA degrees in Psychology in 2012 and 2017, respectively, after which I obtained my Professional Regulation Commission license as a psychologist in the Philippines. I then enrolled in a second masters program at the University of Edinburgh to study cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) at an international level and in 2024 graduated with distinction from its MSc in Psychological Therapies program. I use a friendly but professional approach based on CBT, mindfulness of body and mind, and an openness to explore significant events, relationships, and patterns in your life. I am a strong advocate of the collaborative, reflective nature of counselling: We will together make sense of the thoughts and feelings most important to you. On the side, I have been a teacher, professional editor and writer, and a Yoga Alliance-certified yoga instructor. Though I have worked with various populations, my current focus is mood disorders, substance use issues, relationship issues, life transitions, and existential and identity concerns. I look forward to working with you.
