About Nathaniel
Nathaniel (Nate) Lamkin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado with 24 years of experience. He focuses on grief, serious illness counseling, parenting concerns, stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and career and workplace challenges. Nate also lists family and parenting among his areas of focus.
He draws on many years working in hospice, palliative care, and oncology social work. That work involved helping people through loss and hard medical conversations, and supporting caregivers under sustained stress. He can talk through grief, end-of-life concerns, and the practical decisions that often come with serious illness.
Nate uses straightforward, practical methods. He works from client-centered principles and borrows tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, emotionally-focused approaches, and solution-focused work. Sessions often include skill-building for stress or anxiety, problem-solving for family and parenting pressures, and focused coaching for workplace or career issues.
He has also spent five years doing executive leadership coaching with Vistage Worldwide, where he worked with leaders on decision-making, communication, and managing pressure. That coaching experience informs his approach to career and fatherhood issues and to supporting people juggling work and caregiving roles.
People who choose him should expect a calm, direct approach that aims to make coping strategies and next steps clear. Before booking, confirm the current session options to ensure they match personal needs.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's concerns and priorities, with the therapist listening closely and reflecting back what matters most. It helps people who need to clarify feelings and make sense of difficult choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, stress, and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy emphasizes understanding emotional responses in relationships and can help people work through patterns that cause recurring conflict or distance.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Nathaniel will discuss your goals and try different methods to see what fits best. That conversation is collaborative and can change over time as needs shift.
Confirm current session formats before booking so you know which online options are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or medical appointments. They also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight and let someone join without travel time. Talk with Nathaniel about how to structure sessions so they work with your daily life and responsibilities.
