Nina Pavitt , BACP

Nina Pavitt is a qualified person-centred counsellor who brings a calm, empathic presence to her work with adults. She holds a diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a certificate in Trauma Therapy, and she is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) - the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. She also works with an agency supporting both young people and adults with their mental health.

Counselling with Nina provides a space to talk through concerns, difficult experiences, or life challenges that a person wishes to explore. As a person-centred practitioner, she works from the belief that clients are the experts in their own lives and that change grows from empathy, attentive listening, and collaboration. She aims to offer nonjudgmental support and to help clients develop greater understanding, awareness, and acceptance of their circumstances.

Nina is trained to work with a range of issues and will signpost or refer to other professionals when a client’s needs fall outside her scope. She offers support to anyone aged 18 or over who is based in the United Kingdom, and she approaches each working relationship with respect and clear ethical practice.

Client-Centred and Trauma-Focused Support Online

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the centre of the work. It involves empathic listening, acceptance, and collaboration to help individuals explore their feelings and make sense of life challenges. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to reflect, build self-understanding, and work toward personal goals.

Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the effects of traumatic events and the ways these experiences can shape thoughts, emotions, and behaviour. It uses structured techniques to help people process difficult memories and reduce the ongoing impact of trauma, and it is most helpful for those who want targeted support around past or recent trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy, and Nina will work collaboratively to identify what fits best with a client's needs, goals, and preferences. She will discuss options, adapt methods as the work progresses, and support clients in deciding how to move forward.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer practical flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. These formats make it easier to attend regularly, maintain continuity of care, and access licensed professionals from home or another convenient location.
