About Nadine

Nadine Daubney offers a calm, practical space for people wrestling with money worries, anxiety, grief, work stress and major life changes. She writes clearly and speaks plainly, so sessions focus on what matters to each person. Nadine is a BACP counsellor with eight years of experience and a straightforward, down-to-earth style.

She blends a person-centred way of working with practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy and trauma-focused methods. Sessions usually involve listening first, then trying small techniques that can make daily life easier. The aim is to help people notice patterns, test new ways of responding, and develop skills so they feel more able to cope between meetings.

Nadine trained after a long international career, which shaped her belief in being truly heard by a non-judgemental professional. She has worked with a wide range of people and has experience supporting those affected by abuse, trauma and bereavement. She has also supported clients through career shifts, relocation, and questions around identity.

In practice she uses plain language, warmth and practical suggestions rather than jargon. People who prefer a steady, collaborative approach tend to do well with her. She emphasizes paced work and respects each person’s timing when exploring difficult topics.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Nadine accepts international clients and runs counselling informed by BACP standards.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard without judgement and on building a trusting relationship, which helps people feel able to talk about money worries, grief or life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers simple, practical techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and change small habits that worsen anxiety or stress. Trauma-Focused Therapy targets the effects of past harm and provides methods to reduce overwhelming reactions and regain day-to-day control.

Deciding which approach to use is shared work. The therapist will assess needs, goals and preferences and then suggest techniques to try together. Sessions can shift over time as priorities change, and Nadine emphasises collaboration so the methods feel useful and manageable.

Practical benefits of online work include greater flexibility to fit counselling around work or family commitments and easier access for people who live far from services. Online meetings can also allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or phone-based options when bandwidth is limited. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking so you can plan how counselling will fit into your day.
