About Nina

Nina Pavitt works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression using a person-centred way of working that focuses on the person's own views and pace. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has six years' experience.

Nina trained to a diploma level in Therapeutic Counselling and holds a certificate in Trauma Therapy. She supports adults over 18 who are based in the United Kingdom and also works with an agency offering help to young people and adults with their mental health.

In sessions Nina follows person-centred principles where the client is treated as the expert in their own life. She listens without judgement and works collaboratively rather than telling people what to do. This approach is often used with people who want to talk through life changes, relationship issues, grief, or patterns such as impulsivity and control problems.

Her practice also draws on trauma-focused methods for people who have experienced abuse or traumatic events. That work aims to help people process difficult memories and reduce the distress those memories cause in everyday life.

Nina commonly supports concerns including addictions, eating issues, bipolar-related challenges, ADHD, compassion fatigue and career matters. She also addresses attachment issues, body image, chronic illness or pain, communication difficulties, separation and family problems.

If Nina cannot offer the right support she will try to refer on to someone with suitable skills. People interested in working with her should confirm current session arrangements before booking.

How her approaches translate to online work

Nina uses person-centred counselling which focuses on the client's perspective, listening carefully and working at a pace set by the person. This approach helps with issues such as low self-esteem, relationship concerns, life changes and emotional overwhelm.

She also uses trauma-focused methods that aim to help people process distressing events and reduce the ongoing impact of those memories. Trauma work is typically structured and attentive to safety and pacing while allowing people to make sense of difficult experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the initial work. Nina will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, and they will decide together which methods to use and how to proceed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often find remote work useful for keeping therapy consistent around other commitments.
