Nick Lim-Howe is a Clinical Psychologist and Psychologist based in Dee Why, NSW. You can find the practice at Suite 2, 16 Fisher Road, Dee Why NSW 2099.
Nick works with adults, couples, and families. Sessions are for people who are dealing with everyday stress, and also for times when things feel a bit heavier and harder to sort out on your own. In many cases, that might include feeling overwhelmed, having trouble coping, or finding that old patterns keep showing up in relationships.
A lot of the work focuses on practical change, not just talking things through. Nick uses cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), which is a common way to help you understand how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours connect. It can be useful when you notice your mind running on repeat, when worry takes over, or when you’re stuck in avoidance or stress loops.
Couples therapy is also a big part of the service. That might be when communication has slipped, arguments feel like they keep going in circles, or one or both people feel misunderstood. Family therapy can support households where tensions are building, routines are getting tough, or everyone is feeling stretched.
Nick also offers stress management counselling. This can look like learning tools to calm your body and mind, setting up better coping habits, and finding ways to handle busy days without burning out. Sometimes stress shows up in sleep, mood, or motivation. Other times it shows up in how we react to small things. Over time, therapy helps you spot what’s happening earlier and respond differently.
If you’re looking for a calm, grounded space to make sense of what’s going on, Nick’s sessions are set up to help you take things step by step. You can expect a steady focus on what you want to change, what gets in the way, and what might help from here.
The practice is located in Dee Why, making it convenient for people in the northern beaches area. Appointments are for individual therapy sessions, couples therapy sessions, and family therapy sessions, with CBT and stress management counselling used where it fits your situation.
