If you're creating content which has the same document type then you might have to search by name.
If you get the root node you can search its descendants and detect if there's any which match the name. You should specify the document type in DescendantOrSelf() to narrow the results down (just in case you have nodes with the same name).
E.g.
var nodeExists = new UmbracoHelper(UmbracoContext.Current).TypedContentAtRoot().DescendantsOrSelf("documentType").Any(n => n.Name == nameVariable);
