Nina Mitchell

As a trained psychotherapist and coach I am able to work in many different areas, often including: increasing self-awareness and confidence, understanding conflict, communication and family dynamics, setting healthy boundaries, understanding and managing anxiety, grief and loss, low mood, and many more. 

Therapeutic coaching is a process of self discovery and intentional growth. Working with each individual in a unique way, I typically encourage deep, exploratory conversations to really help you gain clarity over your thoughts, feelings and emotions. These discussions can reveal what might be holding you back or keeping you stuck in repeating patterns and behaviours that you’re finding unhelpful. I am able to draw on a number of tools from my therapy and coaching training to help you understand, process and develop new skills. 

Sometimes, we need the space to grieve, vent, process and heal; therapy can be about deep healing work and understanding the past in order to do this, but it can also be about working through and processing some difficult emotions if you're feeling stuck, unhappy and keep repeating behaviours that aren't helpful. In essence, therapy is about feeling better.

Other times we may want to understand, gain clarity, and figure out a plan of action to move forward. Coaching is about goals, change and working towards a preferred future, and providing the structure to get there. Coaching then, is about doing better. Often, these two modalities work really well together, working at depth as well as offering an energetic, motivated space to move forward. 

Therapeutic coaching as a blended approach can help you to achieve your future-focused goals, while providing the benefits of traditional therapy. It can give you clarity about where you are now, where you would like to be and what is getting in the way, whilst providing you with effective tools to gently work through those obstacles (which we often come across along the way), so that you can move towards the change you want to experience.

I aim to empower my clients with a toolkit of skills and coping strategies, a renewed outlook, and increased self-awareness to help with life's challenges outside of the therapy room. Typically, I work with tools such as strengths and values, CBT skills to help improve the relationship between thoughts, feelings and behaviours, visualisation techniques, transactional analysis, inner child work and many more. But what is more important than any tool or skill is the ability to deeply listen, and provide the space for you to understand your own thoughts and feelings in a way you may not experience in any other relationship. This is where therapy is a fundamental part of the change process. 

Working within private practice, the NHS, mental health settings and the business world, I am able to draw on many approaches when helping my clients find ways to change. If you want to make changes to your life but you're unsure how, feel free to get in touch to explore how we can work together to start the journey.
