About Nina
Nina Wilson is a counsellor who works from an existential and humanistic perspective. She focuses on the whole person and helps people make sense of their lives, values and choices rather than labelling them by a diagnosis. Nina uses a person-centred stance to create a respectful space where people can talk through distress and confusion at their own pace.
Her practice commonly addresses stress, anxiety, depression and addictions. She also supports people struggling with trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, grief and intimacy-related issues.
Background and approach
She has experience with ADHD, eating and sleeping problems, anger and career concerns. Before training as a counsellor, Nina worked for over 28 years in the care sector. That background included elderly care and long-term institutional mental health settings, and it shaped her practical, hands-on approach to supporting people.
She brings seven years of counselling experience to her work. Nina blends person-centred methods with elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy. She adapts these approaches to fit each person, aiming to help them find manageable steps forward and clearer perspective.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled from there.

Online support
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Existential Therapy helps people look at life choices, meaning and personal values. It supports those facing big life questions, grief or major change by focusing on what matters to them and how they want to live.Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflecting concerns back and helping people find their own answers. This style suits people who need a calm space to talk through feelings and decisions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. Small, teachable strategies from DBT can help with anger, impulsivity, addictive behaviours and emotional overwhelm.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to identify what fits your needs, goals and preferences. Together you will try methods and adjust them as you learn what helps most.
Online therapy brings practical advantages. Video calls offer face-to-face conversation when travel is difficult. Phone sessions use less data and can be easier when you need a quick check-in. Live chat or text messaging suits shorter updates or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, care duties and daily life while keeping the focus on your goals and progress.
