About Nadia
Nadia Mackenzie is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage anxiety, stress and periods of life change. She works with individuals facing relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem and career pressures. Nadia also supports people with ADHD and those coping with family and parenting challenges.
Nadia trained in person-centred and psychodynamic ideas and uses cognitive behavioural tools when useful. She aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what feels overwhelming.
Background and approach
Building trust and moving at a comfortable pace are central to her way of working. Sessions begin by identifying what matters most to the client and how current patterns affect day-to-day life. Nadia helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try out different ways of responding.
Practical coping strategies and reflection on past relationships often sit alongside looking at present choices. She draws on attachment-based thinking to make sense of how early bonds shape current reactions. Mindfulness techniques are used to help calm racing thoughts and bring attention back to the present.
Work is collaborative - the client’s goals drive the plan and pace. Nadia holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She has five years of professional experience working with the concerns listed above.
Sessions are offered in English and are arranged to suit each person’s circumstances. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a session at a mutually agreed time.
Approaches that suit online work and everyday life
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape how people relate now, helping make sense of patterns that cause anxiety or conflict. It can be useful when someone wants to understand recurring relationship struggles or feelings of abandonment.Client-centred therapy focuses on being listened to without judgement and following the client’s pace. It helps people who need a calm space to explore feelings, build self-esteem and find their own solutions.
Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, teaches practical ways to notice and challenge unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours. It often helps with anxiety, stress and low mood by breaking problems into manageable steps.
Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the process. Nadia works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences and life situation. That may mean starting with listening, then adding CBT tasks or attachment-focused reflection as trust grows.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let visual cues guide the work, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a lunch break, live chat suits quick check-ins and text messaging supports brief reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and mobility needs while still doing meaningful, structured therapeutic work with a registered or accredited professional.
