About Nicholas

Nicholas Damin is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of practice and registrations with BACP and NCPS. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, self-esteem struggles, and common young adult pressures such as coping with life changes and family conflict.

Nicholas uses a straightforward, person-focused style in sessions. He listens first and helps people name what feels difficult. He often brings simple creative tools to sessions so clients can try new ways of thinking and responding. Sessions move at a pace the client chooses rather than being driven by a fixed timetable.

Clients who see him can expect conversations that focus on real-life concerns - leaving home, first jobs, study pressures, money worries, relationship doubts and comparisons with peers. He also works with people affected by loss, adoption and foster care histories, attachment challenges and long-term health or caregiving strains. Nicholas aims to help people clarify what matters and build small, practical steps forward.

In practice he draws on Client-Centred Therapy to centre the client's experience and Existential Therapy to look at values, meaning and choice. That combination is used to address emotional distress and the decisions young adults often face. He welcomes people from the LGBT community and accepts international clients who want to work in English.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time; fees vary by location. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule their first session through the online options button.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client's own experience. In practice that means the counsellor listens closely, reflects back what he hears, and follows the client's lead to help them make sense of feelings and decisions. This approach suits issues like low self-esteem, anxiety and relationship doubts.

Existential Therapy looks at values, choice and meaning. Sessions using this approach talk through what matters to the person, how they want to live, and what choices feel possible. It can help with life transitions, loss, and questions about identity or purpose that many young adults face.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Nicholas will collaborate with each person to decide what feels most useful, checking in about goals and preferences as things change. That collaborative stance means the focus can shift from practical coping to deeper questions over time.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into study, work or busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals including counsellors often use online sessions to help people maintain consistency while juggling everyday commitments.
