About Nina
Nina Pavitt is a counsellor who focuses on stress, anxiety and trauma. She uses a person-centred approach and trauma-focused methods to help people manage difficult feelings and life changes. Nina works with adults and offers practical, down-to-earth support for depression, relationship problems, grief and issues around self-esteem.
Nina trained to a diploma level in therapeutic counselling and holds a certificate in trauma therapy. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often shown as BACP.
Background and approach
She follows the BACP Ethical Framework in her work. Sessions give people a chance to talk through what feels hard. Nina listens with empathy and avoids judgement.
She does not tell people what to do but helps them explore choices and build understanding of their reactions. Her practice supports people dealing with addictions, ADHD, career stress, body image concerns and chronic illness, among other issues. She can also help with attachment concerns, communication problems, anger and feelings of emptiness.
Nina has six years of experience and works with adults based in the United Kingdom. If she judges that someone needs a different kind of support, she will suggest a referral to a more suitable practitioner. To begin, people complete an initial matching step and then arrange sessions according to Nina's schedule.
Approaches used online and how they help
Client-Centred Therapy is about listening and respect. The counsellor stays alongside the person and offers empathy, helping them make sense of difficult feelings and choices. This approach can help with anxiety, low self-esteem and life changes.Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at how past harm affects present life. It uses targeted methods to reduce the hold of traumatic memories and to build coping skills. It is helpful for people who find past events continue to cause distress.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will explore your goals, needs and preferences and suggest the best fit. That choice is made together and can change as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are flexible and can fit around busy lives. Video calls let people read facial cues and speak more fully. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier when movement or camera use is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing reflection or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to keep regular contact with a registered or accredited professional and to continue work between appointments.
