About Nina
Nina Wilson is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, grief, anger and related concerns. Nina also supports people with sleep and eating difficulties, parenting strain, ADHD and career or life changes.
Nina trained in humanistic and existential approaches and practices person-centred therapy. She uses an integrative style, drawing on elements of dialectical behaviour therapy, motivational interviewing, narrative therapy and solution-focused ideas. Sessions focus on the person rather than a diagnosis and aim to find practical ways to manage problems.
In sessions she listens for what matters to each individual and helps them test small changes. That can mean practicing emotion regulation skills, clarifying values, or trying different ways of speaking about difficult events. She notes how life experience and cultural background shape problems and responses.
Before training as a counsellor, Nina worked for over 28 years in care settings, including elderly care and long-term mental health services. That background informs her practical approach and familiarity with complex needs like addiction and trauma.
People who come to her may want help with boundaries, impulsivity, communication problems or coping after loss. Nina asks clients to think about goals and works collaboratively to build techniques that fit everyday life. She is LGBT aware and trauma informed in her practice.
How her approaches translate to online work
Nina combines person-centred principles with practical tools from DBT and motivational interviewing. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship, which helps when talking through anger, grief or life stress. DBT elements teach concrete skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive reactions, useful for day-to-day anger and coping. Motivational interviewing supports change by exploring a person's own reasons for doing things differently and can help with addictions or lifestyle shifts.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Nina will work with the client to identify what feels useful and adapt methods as things progress. That means testing skills, reflecting on what helps, and adjusting plans based on the person's goals and preferences.
Session formats are not specified in her short biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people use or avoid video depending on what suits them that day. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find online sessions work well for ongoing skill practice and regular support.
