About Nicholas
BACP, NCPS. 25 years' experience. Nicholas Mistiades Dunn offers counselling for people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, and related concerns. He works with clients to make time to talk through feelings and problems and to find ways to cope that fit their life.
Nicholas describes his work as creating an open environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Sessions focus on practical conversation about what is happening now and what the client wants to change. He pays attention to everyday pressures and the effects of major life events on mood and relationships.
Over his career he has worked across counselling, supervision and training roles. That background informs his approach to clinical practice and to guiding clients through longer term difficulties. He draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address issues such as trauma, addictions, intimacy-related problems and eating concerns.
He also supports people dealing with workplace stress, compassion fatigue and career decisions, plus complex presentations including bipolar, ADHD and co-morbidity. Additional areas he lists include adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, ageing and caregiver stress.
Sessions are conducted in English and based in the United Kingdom. Nicholas uses a subscription model for sessions which can be cancelled at any time; fees vary by location. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Evidence-based approaches and working online
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are at the centre of his practice. He uses approaches that focus on current patterns of thinking and behaviour to reduce anxiety and improve coping. These methods help with stress, panic, low mood and everyday worries by identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of responding.He also applies techniques aimed at processing difficult experiences and trauma. These approaches help people make sense of painful events and reduce their ongoing impact on relationships and daily life. Such methods can support work on grief, abuse, addiction and intimacy-related problems.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Nicholas will discuss options and agree a way forward based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process may include trying different techniques to see what helps most.
The practical benefits of remote counselling are that sessions can fit into a busy week and reduce travel time. The profile does not specify session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find shorter or more frequent sessions easier to fit around work or family commitments, and the format you choose can be adapted to practical needs.
