About Naina
Naina Pausker helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She introduces a calm, straightforward presence so conversations feel manageable. Her approach aims to make the first steps less daunting and more practical.
She believes clients are the experts in their own stories and builds on their existing strengths. Sessions focus on small, achievable changes rather than big, sudden overhauls. Naina uses plain language and clear tools to help people find ways forward.
Background and approach
Her work draws on client-centred principles, so the conversation centres on what matters most to the person in the room. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of responding. Psychodynamic ideas can help uncover patterns that repeat over time.
Across sessions she pays attention to practical problems such as communication breakdowns, caregiving stress, and difficulties after separation. She also supports people facing attachment concerns, body image struggles, and the emotional effects of adoption or foster histories. Naina works with complex reactions like dissociation and mood disruption in a steady, non-judgemental way.
Naina holds the NCPS credential and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She offers sessions in English and can work with people internationally. The focus is on helping clients make steady progress that fits their daily life.

Approaches Naina lists

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new coping habits, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and stress.
Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to patterns that repeat across relationships and over time. Talking about early experiences and recurring reactions can reveal why certain situations feel difficult and open up new ways of responding.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This collaborative process means clients can steer the focus and change course when needed.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets conversations feel close to face-to-face, phone calls need less bandwidth, and text or chat can fit short check-ins or days when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to schedule support around work, caregiving, or travel.
