Nathan Staniford

Nathan Staniford is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage anger, stress and relationship difficulties. He writes plainly and listens closely to understand what matters to each person. Nathan aims to make the first step easier by offering steady support as clients work out what they want to change.

He has a decade of counselling experience and holds BACP accreditation from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. That background includes work at four NHS Foundation Trusts, a university, and private practice since 2018. This mix of settings gives him experience with everyday stresses and longer-term struggles.

In sessions he prioritises an open, non-judgemental space where feelings can be named and talked through. He uses client-centred ways of working to follow what a person needs in the moment. He also draws on mindfulness practices to help people notice thoughts and calm strong emotions.

Nathan uses solution-focused ideas when people want practical steps and quick changes. That approach aims to spot small shifts that can make daily life feel more manageable. He works with issues such as anxiety, grief, addictions, intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem and coping with life changes.

People based in the United Kingdom or internationally may contact him through the platform. Sessions are conducted in English and are arranged via the Start Therapy button and the short matching questionnaire on the site.

How Nathan’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters to the person. The therapist reflects and encourages the client to find their own answers, which can help with anger, relationship problems and self-esteem. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple paying-attention skills to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without getting swept away, useful for anxiety and managing strong feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Nathan will help clients figure out which methods suit their goals and preferences, and adapt his style as needs change. That collaborative process helps shape clear, realistic steps to try between sessions.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so please confirm which options are available before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and daily life, and it can reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a quick review is needed or make it simpler to use mindfulness exercises during a break. Registered or accredited professionals can deliver these approaches effectively online, and Nathan will discuss practical arrangements when you start the matching process.
