About Nathaniel
Nathaniel (Nate) Lamkin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 24 years of experience. He focuses on grief, stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, relationship strain, and coping with big life changes. Nate brings a calm, steady presence to conversations and helps people find practical steps forward.
He spent much of his career in hospice, palliative care, and oncology social work. That work included supporting people through serious illness, end-of-life decisions, and bereavement.
Background and approach
Those experiences shaped how he talks with people about loss and uncertainty. Nate uses straightforward, skills-focused methods. He draws on client-centered listening to understand what matters most.
He adds cognitive behavioral techniques to help shift unhelpful thinking and solution-focused tools to set small, achievable goals. Mindfulness practices are paired with emotional work when stress or anxiety feel overwhelming. Emotionally-focused ideas guide conversations about attachment and closeness when relationships are strained.
He also offers coaching-style support for career and leadership concerns born from his executive peer group experience. Sessions aim to build coping skills, reduce overwhelm, and clarify next steps. Parents often find practical strategies for balancing caregiving and self-care.
People dealing with cancer, caregiver stress, fertility or fatherhood issues will find experience relevant to their concerns. Nate practices in Colorado and conducts sessions in English. He holds a Colorado LCSW credential and brings both clinical and leadership coaching perspectives to his work.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's priorities. It helps people feel heard and shapes goals around what matters to them most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches techniques to change unhelpful thinking patterns to reduce anxiety and improve mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to try methods that match their needs and goals. That might mean combining client-centered listening with CBT tools, or adding mindfulness and solution-focused steps to create a plan that fits day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video can support face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on busy days. Live chat or text-based messaging can work for shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or when writing feels more comfortable. These options help people fit consistent work into parenting, caregiving, or work schedules.
