About me

Hello, I'm Nina, a person-centred counsellor and I am here to help support you in navigating the challenges to your happiness that have brought you to counselling.

I currently have availability for new clients on weekday evenings 5pm to 9pm (online or phone only) and Saturday's 9am to 5pm in-person, online or phone.

How can I help?

Come as you are, bring anything

A truly holistic approach, as a person-centred therapist, I work with whatever you, the client, brings: cognition (thoughts), emotions, feelings and the body’s ‘felt sense’, of 'something is wrong'. My focus is led by you and how you relate to issues affecting you in the present moment.

Person-centred (or non-directive / Rogerian) therapy is a highly effective evidence-based approach that helps people to find their own best solutions to their problems.

I will provide an environment for you to reappraise your thoughts, feelings, actions, values and strengths so that you can understand your situation in your own way, unlock your potential, and overcome your difficulties.

This form of therapy seeks to do nothing to you: no assessment, no judgment, no treatments, no expectations, respecting your self-determination and valuing you as a unique individual which allows you to re-organise yourself internally, becoming stronger and more authentic.

You may feel unsure of why you feel you need counselling, you may feel you don’t know the answers yet, of course you don’t, you don’t even know the right questions yet, but you’d be amazed at how powerful this can be.

I won’t tell you what to feel, but I will help you find what you are feeling. I won’t tell you how to think, but I will help you find what you really think. I won’t tell you what to do, but I will help you find what you want to do and in doing so, find solutions for whatever you feel is stopping you leading a fulfilled life.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).

Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).

Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.

Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.

All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
