About Nina Wilson

Nina Wilson is a counsellor holding BACP membership with seven years of counselling experience and training rooted in humanistic and existential traditions. She adopts a holistic stance, attending to psychological, emotional, physical, and spiritual dimensions of a person rather than reducing someone to a diagnosis. Her work places the individual at the centre of care, supporting people as they find ways to live with, manage, or move beyond the difficulties they face.

As an integrative practitioner, she draws on Person-Centred Therapy alongside elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Feminist Therapy, adapting methods to meet each person’s needs. She is LGBT aware, trauma informed, and multiculturally sensitive, shaping therapy to reflect a client's background and circumstances.

Her clinical focus includes addiction and recovery, ADHD and neurodiversity, domestic abuse, trauma and PTSD, depression and anxiety, low self-esteem, kleptomania, hoarding, loss and grief, boundary setting, communication difficulties, and self-harm. Before qualifying as a counsellor, she spent over 28 years working across the care sector, from elderly care to long-term institutional mental health settings, experience she brings to building effective therapeutic relationships. She recognises that seeking help takes courage and aims to support people compassionately through their journey.

Approaches for Online Support and Therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-directive space where the person leads the conversation and the therapist offers empathy and unconditional positive regard. This approach helps people explore their values, build self-awareness, and strengthen self-esteem. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, combines acceptance and change strategies with practical skills for managing intense emotions, reducing self-harm, and improving relationships. It is often used for emotional regulation and impulse-related difficulties. Existential Therapy invites exploration of meaning, freedom, responsibility, and life choices, supporting people who are facing grief, life transitions, or questions about purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Nina works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit best with their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts techniques as therapy progresses so the work remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to maintain consistent contact, schedule sessions around daily life, and continue therapeutic work from different locations. Licensed professionals can use these formats to provide ongoing support, practical skills, and reflective space tailored to individual circumstances.
