About Nicholas

Nicholas 'Nick' Navarro is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Washington with three years of professional experience. He works with people who have stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and related concerns such as social anxiety and phobia. Nick focuses on practical steps to help someone manage day-to-day problems rather than labels or tests.

He uses clear, conversational sessions that are goal-focused. Conversations center on what is troubling the person now and what small changes might help. He draws on techniques that teach skills for strong emotion control, clearer thinking, and steadier behavior.

Nick also works with issues around attachment, communication problems, isolation and loneliness, and life purpose. He supports men who want to talk through pressures they face and people coping with panic attacks or post-traumatic stress. He pays attention to how past experiences shape current reactions and looks for concrete ways to reduce distress.

The session style is interactive and practical. Expect to talk through recent situations, try new ways of responding, and check what works between sessions. Nick explains clinical ideas in plain language and sets small, measurable steps that fit everyday life.

To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The counselor uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.

How his approaches work in online sessions

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and testing small changes to reduce anxiety and panic. It is often used for anxiety, panic attacks, and social worries by practicing new responses and tracking results.

DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. It can help when emotions feel overwhelming, when anger or intense stress interferes with daily life, or when relationships and communication are strained.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist discusses the client’s goals, tries strategies, and adjusts methods based on what helps most. This is a collaborative process where feedback guides what comes next.

Confirm the current session formats before booking since formats are not specified here. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to travel. Nick will discuss how to structure sessions so they fit the client’s routine and goals.
