About Nadine

Nadine Daubney is a BACP counsellor with eight years of practice. She offers calm, straightforward support for people worried about sleep, anxiety, grief or life changes. Nadine aims to help clients feel heard and to learn practical ways to manage daily struggles.

She trained after a long international career and brings life experience to sessions. Her style is down to earth, warm and interactive. She avoids stigmatising labels and works at each person’s pace.

Nadine uses a person-centred way of working, blending it with cognitive behavioural ideas and trauma-focused techniques. In practice this means listening first, then offering tools such as thought and behaviour strategies, grounding exercises and ways to tackle upsetting memories.

She has supported a wide range of people over the years, from different ages and backgrounds, and has used interpreters for deaf clients when needed. Nadine has worked with issues including depression, addiction, relationship and family difficulties, career transitions, bereavement, trauma and PTSD, and sleep problems.

Sessions aim to help people identify manageable steps and build skills to cope day to day. Nadine describes her role as supportive rather than corrective - she helps clients reach their own decisions and improve how they feel and function.

If someone wants to explore therapy they can expect practical conversation, gentle challenge and tailored tools. Nadine focuses on clear language and usable strategies rather than jargon.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood. The therapist listens without judgement and helps clients find their own answers, which can be useful for issues like low mood, self-esteem and sleep problems.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. Online sessions can include practical tools such as scheduling, thought records and simple behavioural experiments to improve routines and tackle insomnia or anxiety.

Trauma-Focused Therapy involves techniques to reduce the power of distressing memories and to build coping skills. It can help people who are managing the after-effects of abuse, accidents or other traumatic events.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods match their goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.

For practicalities, confirm the session formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer talking without being in the same room, or who need flexible scheduling while juggling work or caregiving.
