About

Hello! My name is Nina and I am a Brazilian who has been living in the UK for more than 20 years. I am licensed in the UK with 11 years of professional work experience. I am a Registered Member of BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and an accredited Member of NCPS (National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society).
Throughout the years I have worked with adults, teenagers and parents, supporting clients with a wide range of issues such as stress, depression, anxiety, self-harm, anger management, surviving domestic and narcissistic abuse, self-esteem and confidence building. I also have training in Not Good Enough mindset, Dealing with Shame and Trauma informed therapy. I also have a Couple/Relationship COSRT Level 5 accredited certificate.
I am currently training to update my expertise in Trauma-Informed Therapy.
Counselling can be an enriching experience and the bond and trust developed between client and therapist can be really worthwhile. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?

Many people wonder whether therapy delivered online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or managing life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions for most people.

A key benefit of online work is flexibility – clients can choose the format that fits their life best, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This variety makes it easier to schedule regular therapy around work, family and other commitments.

Therapy provided online is delivered by licensed professionals and therapists, and if a different therapeutic fit is needed it is possible to switch practitioners. For many, remote sessions offer a practical, effective way to access consistent support while navigating everyday demands.
