About Nina
Nina Wilson uses a person-centred, humanistic approach to counselling. She focuses on the whole person rather than just a diagnosis. Nina aims to offer steady, practical support while people work through stress, anxiety, addiction and trauma.
She is BACP registered, and brings seven years of counselling experience to her practice. She adapts her methods to each person, drawing on Client-Centred Therapy alongside elements from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Existential Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy.
How Nina works
That mix lets her help with low mood, self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, sleeping or eating difficulties, and managing life changes. Nina has particular experience with addiction and recovery, as well as trauma, domestic abuse and post-traumatic stress. She also supports people managing ADHD, compassion fatigue, bipolar symptoms and impulse control problems.
She will work with issues such as hoarding, self-harm histories, communication problems and codependency when they arise. Before counselling, Nina worked in the care sector for more than 28 years across elderly care and long-term mental health settings. That background shaped her practical understanding of supporting people through complex challenges and transitions.
Her style aims to be collaborative and straightforward. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and on building skills to manage emotions and day-to-day difficulties. Nina helps people find clearer choices and steady routines as part of their recovery and growth.

How therapy approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the conversation and focuses on understanding their experience without judgement. It helps people who need emotional validation, clearer self-understanding and steady support while they make changes.Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsive behaviour and improving relationships. It can be useful for people dealing with strong mood swings, self-control challenges or patterns of self-harm.
Finding the right approach often happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then combine methods that suit the person's needs. This collaborative process makes it easier to tailor sessions as priorities change.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who have lower bandwidth. Chat and messaging work well for shorter check-ins, note-based reflection or when someone wants to write rather than speak. These options help make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different schedules.
