Nadine Daubney, BACP

BACP registered counsellor, BACP, with 8 years' experience. Nadine Daubney works with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, career change, depression, addictions and a wide range of other concerns. She describes her approach as person-centred, with elements of cognitive behavioural therapy and trauma-focused work.

Nadine trained as a counsellor after an international career. That life experience shaped how she listens and responds. She aims to teach practical tools so people can manage difficulties between sessions and over time become their own therapist.

She has worked with people of many ages and backgrounds and has experience supporting deaf clients using sign language interpreters. Presenting issues she has seen include OCD, bereavement, questioning sexuality, settling after relocation, and PTSD following trauma and abuse.

Across her practice she has delivered around 10,000 counselling sessions and has worked with clients aged from 16 to 88. Her caseload has ranged from senior executives to people using hostel services when she volunteered, showing a broad range of life circumstances.

In sessions she describes herself as down to earth and interactive, working at the client's pace. She uses person-centred listening alongside CBT techniques and trauma-focused methods when appropriate. The emphasis is on clear, everyday language and practical steps that a person can try between meetings.

To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and international clients are accepted.
