About Nicholas

Nicholas Mistiades Dunn is a counsellor with nearly 25 years of professional experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety and anger, and supports those coping with grief and relationship difficulties.

He aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where people can talk about their thoughts and feelings. Nicholas encourages clear, practical steps alongside listening so that conversations can lead to useful change.

Across his career he has worked in counselling, supervision and training roles. That background means he regularly draws on a wide range of everyday approaches to help people tackle problems such as addiction, low self-esteem and the fallout from trauma and abuse.

People also turn to him for help with parenting strain, career worries, intimacy concerns and complex conditions like bipolar or ADHD. He supports those dealing with body image, caregiving stress and long-term illness as well.

Nicholas is accredited with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and is listed with NCPS. He practises in the United Kingdom and works in English. To begin, he asks people to make an initial match through the site and then schedule sessions that suit both parties.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques typically focus on practical steps and clear goals. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, then practise small changes to reduce anxiety and stress. This can be useful for managing anger, low mood, and day-to-day worries.

Another approach emphasises processing difficult experiences through guided conversation and reflection. It supports people dealing with trauma, grief and relationship difficulties by helping them make sense of what happened and find ways to move forward.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then collaborate on a plan that suits the person. That process can include trying different ways of working to see what fits best.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as these are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep continuity of care when circumstances change, while letting them choose arrangements that match their everyday routines.
