About Nicholas

Nicholas Damin works with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues around self-esteem and life changes. He uses client-centred and existential approaches and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and NCPS. He has three years' experience as a counsellor in the United Kingdom.

Nicholas introduces sessions in a straightforward way. He encourages people to take small steps and to talk about what matters most to them. He aims to listen without judgement and to help clients make sense of their feelings and choices. Sessions may include practical exercises or creative tools when these help the conversation.

He has worked with a wide range of concerns including family-related difficulties, LGBT matters, intimacy issues and ADHD-related struggles. Other areas he supports include grief, ageing and carer stress, chronic illness and disability, and communication or commitment problems. He also works with people affected by adoption, abandonment, attachment or neurodiversity topics.

Nicholas describes his way of working as respectful and flexible. He prefers to let the client's needs guide the pace and focus of the work. Practical coping strategies and reflective discussion are used alongside the longer conversations that come from existential thinking.

People who choose him can expect clear, simple explanations about the counselling process. He offers help for both immediate concerns and longer-term questions about meaning, identity and relationships. If someone wants to try counselling, he invites them to start with a brief matching questionnaire and book an initial session.

How his approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and on giving the client space to talk. The counsellor reflects back what he hears and helps clients find their own wording for difficult feelings, which can help with issues such as low self-esteem and relationship difficulties.

Existential Therapy looks at questions of meaning, choice and responsibility. It involves exploring how life changes, grief or questions about identity affect everyday decisions and personal values, and it can suit people facing major transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and test different ways of working together. This is a collaborative process where the style and pace are adjusted to what helps the client most.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, study or caring responsibilities, and they can allow shorter check-ins or reduce travel time. Some formats may also involve less use of video, which can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter phone check-in is needed.
