Nadine Daubney , BACP

Nadine Daubney is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with eight years of clinical experience, offering a person-centered approach alongside targeted training in trauma work and bereavement. BACP is the professional association for counselling and psychotherapy in the UK, and Nadine has also completed postgraduate study in High Intensity Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and additional trauma-based training. She moved into counselling after an international career that reinforced how much people benefit from being truly heard by an independent, non-judgmental professional, and she brings that ethos to every session. Nadine’s aim is to teach practical tools and techniques so that, over time, clients build skills to manage their own wellbeing.

She has worked with hundreds of clients aged 16 to 88 and has delivered around 10,000 counselling sessions, supporting a very varied client base from corporate leaders to people experiencing homelessness. Her practice has included working with sign language interpreters to support deaf clients. People come to Nadine with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, career transitions, OCD, bereavement, questions about sexuality, trauma and PTSD, addictions, self-esteem, and other life changes.

Nadine’s style is down-to-earth, warm and interactive, and she works at each client’s pace with respect, sensitivity and compassion. She integrates person-centered counselling with elements of CBT and trauma-focused methods, speaking in plain language and tailoring sessions to individual needs. While she does not promise to ‘fix’ problems, she supports clients to identify ways to better manage difficulties and to reach their own decisions about next steps. Nadine accepts international clients and offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat and messaging to accommodate different needs and schedules.

Therapeutic approaches and how online therapy supports them

Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgmental space where the client’s own goals and experiences guide the work. It helps with self-esteem, life transitions, relationship concerns and the emotional fallout of change by emphasizing empathy and collaboration.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that explores the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, OCD and stress, teaching strategies to reframe unhelpful patterns and build new coping tools.

Trauma-focused therapy addresses the effects of traumatic experiences and PTSD, using techniques designed to reduce distress and help people process difficult memories at a pace they can manage.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Nadine works collaboratively with each client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts the plan over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent care around work, family and travel commitments. These formats offer flexibility to schedule sessions across time zones, maintain continuity during life changes, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable.
