About Nathaniel
Nathaniel (Nate) Lamkin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Colorado with 24 years of experience. He focuses on grief, serious illness concerns, stress, anxiety, relationship and parenting issues, and career and life transitions.
He spent much of his career in hospice, palliative care, and oncology social work. That work involved talking with people about grief, advance care planning, and end-of-life concerns. He has supported many people navigating caregiver stress and the emotional demands of serious illness.
Nate uses straightforward, practical methods to help people manage anxiety and build coping skills. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts and test different responses. He also uses client-centered and solution-focused approaches to keep sessions goal-oriented and action-focused.
Because of his clinical background he often helps people handle family and relationship strain that comes with illness or caregiving. He also works with workplace stress, fatherhood issues, fertility and men’s concerns, and people facing cancer or end-of-life decisions.
In addition to clinical work, he spent several years doing executive leadership coaching with Vistage Worldwide. That experience informs his coaching style for career and leadership concerns. Sessions are offered in English from Colorado, and he does not take international clients at this time.
How his approaches translate to online work
CBT helps people notice and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It uses short exercises and experiments to change how daily stress and anxiety are handled. Client-centered work focuses on listening and reflecting so people can decide which changes matter most to them. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on how emotions shape relationships and helps people name and respond to feelings more directly.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. He will work collaboratively to choose methods that match the client’s goals and practical needs. Sessions often mix approaches so skills-building, emotional processing, and goal-setting happen together.
Session formats are not listed in the biographical summary, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid travel for people balancing caregiving or work. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises and solution-focused steps to an online meeting so practical practice happens between sessions.
