Nathaniel (Nate) Lamkin, LCSW

Nathaniel (Nate) Lamkin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 24 years of experience. He helps people manage grief, stress, anxiety, workplace strain, and changes that come with serious illness. Nate also supports parenting and fatherhood concerns, self-esteem struggles, career questions, and coping during major life transitions.

He spent much of his career in hospice, palliative care, and oncology social work. That work involved supporting people through loss, grief, and difficult conversations about end-of-life planning. Nate draws on that background when clients face cancer, caregiver stress, fertility challenges, or hospice and end-of-life issues.

In sessions he uses practical, down-to-earth approaches. He blends Client-Centered techniques with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try small changes. Emotionally-Focused and Solution-Focused methods are used when the goal is to repair relationships or reach concrete next steps.

He also brings five years of leadership coaching experience from work with executive peer groups. That coaching informs work on workplace issues, career transitions, and building resilience. Clients can expect sessions that focus on clear goals, everyday strategies, and steady support.

Nate practices in Colorado and meets people in straightforward, goal-oriented conversation. He works in English and asks people to confirm current session options before booking. To begin, prospective clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire.

How Nate’s approaches translate to online work

Nate uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a respectful, collaborative relationship that keeps the client’s goals front and center. This approach helps people feel heard and guides sessions toward what matters most to them.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and test small, practical changes. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns because it focuses on skills people can use between sessions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand and shift important emotional responses in relationships. It can be useful when communication and connection are part of the concern.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped before, then suggest methods to try. That choice is collaborative and may change as progress is made.

Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how meetings will be held. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow folks to check in during a lunch break or between appointments. Some formats also use less bandwidth or allow shorter check-ins depending on what the therapist offers, so ask about options when you schedule.
