About Nina

Nina Pavitt is a person-centred counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and sudden life changes. She offers a calm space to talk about what is worrying you and to look at how things feel right now. Nina works with adults across a range of concerns, including addiction, grief, eating issues, career worries and ADHD-related difficulties.

She trained with a diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and holds a certificate in Trauma Therapy. Nina is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, or BACP, and follows their Ethical Framework. She also works with an agency supporting young people and adults with mental health needs.

In sessions Nina takes a person-centred approach. That means she listens closely and follows your pace. She does not direct you or push solutions; instead she offers empathy and gentle questions to help you find your own answers.

Nina can help people increase self-awareness and accept difficult feelings. She aims to create a non-judgemental setting so clients can look at attachment, control or communication issues and work towards clearer thinking and steadier choices.

If a concern falls outside her scope she will try to suggest another professional who can help. She works with people aged 18 and over who live in the United Kingdom. To begin, readers should use the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire before booking.

How her approaches shape online work

Nina uses person-centred counselling and trauma-focused work as the backbone of her practice. Person-centred counselling focuses on listening, empathy and helping the client find their own solutions; it can help with stress, low self-esteem and relationship concerns. Trauma-focused work addresses the effects of past harm and difficult experiences and is aimed at easing symptoms connected to those events.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Nina will discuss your needs, goals and preferences with you and work together to decide which methods to use. She aims to tailor sessions so they match what you want to achieve rather than imposing a fixed plan.

Their biography does not specify which online session types are offered, so confirm the available formats before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to keep continuity of care when schedules change, while the therapist and client agree on practical arrangements that suit daily life.
