About Nathan
NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience, Nathan Dean works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief and a range of other concerns. He uses a person-centred approach and draws on techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy, Jungian and narrative ideas to support conversations about what matters to each person.
Nathan helps people talk through grief, depression and anxiety in short, clear steps. He also addresses issues such as self-esteem, addiction, intimacy-related concerns, eating and sleeping problems, anger and career stress. Additional areas listed include ADHD, attachment and abandonment, chronic pain and illness, and hearing impairment. Sessions are held in English and he accepts international clients.
His main approach is person-centred, which means he focuses on a client's lived experience rather than giving directive advice. He will also bring in other techniques where they fit, including cognitive behavioural tools to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and narrative methods to examine personal stories.
Nathan offers an option called a Mental Health MOT - a structured set of sessions to map current strengths and pressures and consider small changes that could help. He describes working at the client's pace, guiding and challenging when helpful, and drawing on wider ideas such as Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs or Ikigai where useful.
He notes lived experience of chronic illness and an ileostomy stoma, and says this informs his understanding of disability and long-term health concerns. He also identifies as COVID conscious and is willing to discuss isolation, boundary setting and related practical matters.
To begin, Nathan asks people to use the platform's matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session. He has stated that he does not use artificial intelligence tools within his practice.

How his approaches translate to online work
Person-centred therapy emphasises listening to the person's experience and helping them make sense of it in their own terms. Online sessions can be used to explore daily stresses, grief, relationships and how health conditions affect daily life.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. Online meetings can include straightforward exercises, thought records and short homework tasks between sessions to test what helps.
Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and asks which aspects of those stories they want to keep or change. Working this way can help with identity questions, shame, and issues like abandonment or attachment concerns.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Nathan discusses a client's goals and preferences during early sessions and adapts techniques as needed. He describes guiding and challenging when appropriate while following the client's pace.
The profile does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits can help people maintain continuity of care while attending to everyday responsibilities.
