Nina Wilson is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction and trauma.
About Nina
Nina Wilson is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction and trauma. She works with individuals on issues like low self-esteem, grief, depression and problems with intimacy. Nina holds BACP and has seven years of counselling experience in the United Kingdom.
Nina trained with humanistic and existential foundations and brings that outlook into sessions. She treats each person as an individual rather than a diagnosis.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters to the client and on practical steps they can try between meetings. Her background includes many years in the care sector before moving into counselling. That experience shaped a practical style and an ability to build steady therapeutic relationships.
It also gave her exposure to ageing and geriatric issues, long-term mental health settings and recovery work. Nina combines person-centred work with elements of dialectical behaviour therapy, motivational interviewing and narrative and solution-focused techniques. She adapts methods to what fits each person’s needs and goals.
Conversations can include exploring values, building coping skills, or changing unhelpful patterns. People come to Nina for help with a wide range of concerns including addiction and recovery, ADHD and neurodiversity, domestic abuse, trauma, self-harm, hoarding and eating issues. She also supports those facing career change, parenting strain, anger or compassion fatigue.
Taking the first step can feel hard. Nina aims to create a calm, respectful space and to work collaboratively, helping people find manageable ways forward.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nina will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. That might mean starting with a person-centred conversation, practising DBT skills between sessions, or using motivational interviewing to build readiness for change. The choice is collaborative and can be adjusted over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for full conversations and non-verbal cues, phone calls can fit a short break at work and need less bandwidth, chat is handy for quick check-ins and messaging can support ongoing reflection between appointments. These options help people fit therapy around life, work and caring responsibilities.
