About Nina
Nina blends Trauma-Focused Therapy with Client-Centered approaches to keep sessions focused on each person’s experience. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques and mindfulness practices to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills. Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused strategies guide short-term goals and steps forward.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and straightforward. Nina listens first, then helps set realistic goals you can try between meetings. She pays attention to body, mind, and spirit so treatment can fit your whole life rather than only one part of it.
Common topics she addresses include grief, addiction, relationship and family concerns, anger, low self-esteem, and the stress that comes from caregiving or feeling isolated. She also supports people working through control issues, codependency, feelings of emptiness, and forgiveness.
Her background includes a Master of Social Work degree from Wayne State University. Nina focuses on practical coping strategies, symptom management, and life change planning to help people live more fully. If you want a straightforward, compassionate clinician, Nina aims to help you make steady progress.
How Nina Uses Trauma-Focused Care and CBT Online
Nina often combines Trauma-Focused Therapy with Client-Centered work to help people process difficult experiences while staying rooted in their own goals. Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at how past harm affects daily life and focuses on manageable steps to reduce distress and rebuild a sense of safety and control.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with real-life experiments. CBT helps people develop new habits, reduce anxiety or low mood, and practice skills between sessions. Mindfulness techniques are also woven in to help notice emotions and bodily sensations without being overwhelmed.
Finding the right approach is treated as a team effort. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust as goals evolve. This keeps work practical and focused on what matters most to the client.
