About Nathaniel

Nathaniel (Nate) Lamkin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 24 years of experience. He helps people facing grief, serious illness, stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and challenges with self esteem. Nate draws on years of hospice and oncology social work when supporting clients through loss and hard conversations.

Nate’s work is straightforward and practical. He listens first and helps people name what matters most. He offers tools to manage anxiety, build coping skills, and handle major life changes. He also supports people navigating career stress, parenting concerns, and caregiver strain.

Over many years Nate has guided conversations about advance care planning and end-of-life matters for people and their loved ones. That background informs how he approaches grief, hospice, and palliative care topics in session. He also brings experience with cancer-related concerns and fertility or fatherhood issues when they arise.

Nate blends a few therapy styles to match each person’s goals. He uses client-centered listening, elements of cognitive behavioral work to change unhelpful patterns, mindfulness to reduce reactivity, emotionally-focused techniques for relationship work, and solution-focused strategies to set clear next steps.

People who choose Nate can expect calm, direct support and help making practical changes. He works from Colorado and meets with people in English. To begin, follow the provider’s matching process to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a session.

How these approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. The therapist reflects concerns, helps people name what matters, and supports goal setting. This approach is useful for grief, caregiver stress, and figuring out next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety and improve mood. It can help with stress management, low self esteem, and coping with life changes.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and process strong emotions that affect relationships and wellbeing. It can be helpful when working through relational strain, loss, or intense emotional reactions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match the client’s goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can change as progress is made, with practical steps agreed on together.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people connect from wherever they are while keeping focus on coping skills, grief processing, and practical problem solving.
