Nicholas Damin, BACP, NCPS

Nicholas Damin is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of clinical experience. He offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people feeling overwhelmed, uncertain or nervous about starting therapy. He introduces therapy as a step-by-step process and focuses on helping people who just need someone to listen as they figure things out.

Nick works with a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem and relationship and intimacy-related issues. He also supports people facing life changes, family tensions, ADHD-related challenges and LGBT issues. His practice includes additional work around abandonment, attachment concerns, adoption and foster care, ageing and caregiver stress, chronic illness and other long‑term difficulties.

His counselling style is warm, respectful and flexible. He uses Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise the person’s own goals and pace. He also draws on Existential Therapy to help people look at life meaning, choice and responsibility when facing change.

Sessions often include conversational work alongside creative tools and practical exercises. Nicholas encourages small, manageable steps rather than quick fixes and adapts tasks to what feels useful for each person. He aims to help people build confidence, improve communication and find clearer ways to cope with everyday pressures.

How his approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience and priorities. The therapist follows what matters to the client, listens actively and helps people set their own goals. This approach suits issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns and general anxiety where being heard is the main need.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and how people face life transitions. It can help when someone is coping with big changes, grief or questions about purpose during midlife or other turning points.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nicholas will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful. He checks in about goals and adapts the pace and tools used as the relationship develops.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, keep sessions shorter when needed, and use audio-only interactions if video is difficult. It also allows practising new communication skills between meetings and using creative exercises during sessions. These practical benefits often help therapy feel more manageable alongside everyday life.
