Karina Nipane , NCPS

Karina Nipane is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with three years of clinical experience who supports people navigating grief, loss, bereavement, trauma, anxiety, and major life transitions. She holds the NCPS credential, indicating qualification in psychotherapeutic counselling practice and completion of relevant supervised training.

Her practice is pluralistic in orientation, drawing on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, psychodynamic ideas, and humanistic approaches to tailor sessions to each person’s needs. Karina combines exploration of thought and behaviour patterns with attention to emotional experience and personal values, adapting techniques to suit the pace and preferences of the individual.

Before working as a counsellor she provided front-line support to people in mental health crisis, experience that shaped a compassionate, empathetic style and an ability to respond calmly in moments of acute distress. That background also exposed her to clients from diverse backgrounds, enhancing her understanding of the different challenges people face.

Karina aims to offer a welcoming, respectful space where people can explore difficult emotions, reflect on relationship and self-esteem issues, and work toward clearer purpose and coping. At this time Karina is not accepting new clients.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online support

Karina works from a pluralistic model and draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychodynamic and humanistic ideas to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns to reduce symptoms such as anxiety and depression and to improve coping strategies. Psychodynamic-informed work explores how past experiences and relationship patterns influence current feelings and behaviours, which can help when addressing attachment difficulties, abandonment, or recurring relationship struggles.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Karina collaborates with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and will adapt methods over time so the work remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy with Karina can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comforts. These options make it easier to access consistent support without travel, helping people fit therapy into busy or complex lives while working with licensed professionals and therapists who use evidence-based techniques.
