Nathan Holmes

Nathan Holmes is a counsellor who helps people who feel alone, stuck or overwhelmed. He often works with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and problems tied to addiction. Nathan aims to create a calm space where people can talk things through at their own pace.

He draws on seven years of experience, including work in drug and alcohol services. This has involved supporting people in active addiction and their family members, and helping with practical challenges around relationships and parenting. He uses a humanistic, person-centred approach that keeps the client in charge of the goals.

Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual. Nathan listens, reflects back what he hears and gently helps people clarify the next steps. He also uses motivational interviewing to help people explore change when they feel stuck or ambivalent.

People bring a mix of worries such as panic attacks, social anxiety, feelings of emptiness, grief and struggles with communication. Isolation and loneliness are included among the issues he addresses, often alongside relationship or family concerns.

His BACP credential is noted as part of his background. Nathan works from the United Kingdom and offers counselling in English. If someone wants to begin, they can use the site process to match with him and book their first session.

How his approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client’s lead. The counsellor reflects what is said and helps people name their feelings and choices. This approach can be useful for addressing loneliness, low self-worth and relationship worries.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way of talking about change. It helps people weigh up options and find their own reasons to move forward. This is often helpful for addictions, making life changes, and dealing with ambivalence about next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nathan will discuss styles and try to match the way he works to the client’s goals and preferences. This happens together, with regular check-ins to see what is helping and what to adjust.

Check the booking details to confirm available session formats before you book. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people maintain therapy while juggling work, childcare or treatment commitments.
