Nadine Daubney , BACP

Nadine Daubney is a BACP counsellor with eight years of practical experience. She focuses on helping women with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem and life transitions, and she also supports people facing trauma and abuse. Nadine keeps language simple and direct so conversations feel straightforward and useful.

Nadine trained after a long international career that showed her the value of being truly listened to. She combines a person-centred way of working with techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and trauma-focused approaches. That mix means sessions can be about being heard, while also learning tools to cope with difficult thoughts and feelings.

She has worked with people across a wide age range and many life situations, from career changes to bereavement and long-term health challenges. Nadine has experience supporting clients with addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, and the stresses of caring for others. She has also worked with deaf clients using sign language interpreters.

Nadine aims to help people notice patterns that cause pain and then practise small, practical steps to change them. She speaks plainly, avoids clinical jargon and tailors each session to the person in front of her. Over time she encourages people to build the skills they can use on their own.

Her approach is warm, down to earth and interactive. Sessions move at the client's pace and focus on respectful, non-stigmatising support. Nadine invites anyone who wants a calm, practical counsellor to explore whether her way of working feels like a good fit.

How Nadine's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy is about being heard and understood. Sessions focus on the person's experience, with the counsellor reflecting and supporting without judgement. This approach helps when someone needs a calm space to process feelings like grief or low self-worth.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. It can help with anxiety, depression, sleep problems and managing stress by teaching simple skills and steps to try between sessions.

Trauma-Focused Therapy offers ways to support people who have experienced abuse or other traumatic events. It aims to reduce distressing symptoms and to build coping strategies at a steady, manageable pace.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences. That choice can shift as therapy progresses, with regular check-ins about what is helping.

Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls let people read non-verbal cues and have a nearer approximation of face-to-face work. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit brief updates, between-session notes or when typing feels easier than talking. Together these options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life.
