About Nicholas
Nicholas Damin is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with BACP and NCPS registration and three years of experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, family matters, self-esteem and ADHD. He also supports people facing life changes and offers help around LGBT issues and coping with caregiving or long-term illness.
Nicholas uses client-centred and existential approaches. He focuses on listening and creating a clear space where a person can talk through what matters to them. Sessions are conversational and paced to suit the individual rather than forcing a fixed plan.
People who come to him can expect practical conversation and occasional creative tools. These might be ways to notice patterns, try small changes, or reflect on difficult feelings. He aims to help people clarify what they want and figure out manageable next steps.
He has worked with a range of concerns related to family and parenting contexts, such as blended family issues, adoption and foster care matters, abandonment and attachment issues, and communication problems. He also supports people dealing with ageing, chronic illness, cancer, and caregiver stress.
Nicholas welcomes clients who want steady, unhurried work rather than quick solutions. He encourages people to set the pace and to bring what feels most pressing to each session. To begin, visitors follow the site process to complete a short questionnaire and arrange an initial appointment.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens without judgement, reflects what the client says, and follows their pace. This approach suits people who need someone to attend closely to their concerns and help them find their own direction.Existential Therapy looks at questions about meaning, choice and responsibility. It helps people facing life transitions, grief, or struggles with identity and purpose to consider different ways of responding and making decisions.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Nicholas will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful, and together they will decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.
Please confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific online methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer options for people who live far from local services. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt their style for web or phone appointments to match a client's needs and circumstances.
