English-speaking therapy for expats around the world, with face-to-face or outdoor options if you're based in Stockholm, Sweden

I work one-to-one with adults and teens with ADHD or autism, mixed culture issues, or difficulties arising from gender, sexual or relationship identity

I will give you a safe and confidential space to explore your difficulties, at your own pace, in your own time, and using English language

Supervision

I offer counselling and psychotherapy supervision for therapists around the world.

My training allows me to offer supervision across modalities, and with other practitioners such as social workers, lawyers etc.

I’m Nina

I am a native English-speaking therapist working remotely with expats all over the world, and in-person with clients in Stockholm, Sweden. 

I am a UK-accredited Gestalt therapist with 30 years’ experience in the fields of mental health and psychology, and working as a therapist since 2010. I work creatively, using whatever helps you to understand yourself or your situation better. 

Although therapy is often available via public health routes, unlike private therapy, it can be a long wait, and it may not cater to your individual needs – such as type of therapy, specialisms, being able to work fluently in English, or the number of sessions offered. I am here to support you if you would prefer greater choice over how, and with whom, you undertake therapy sessions.

Video 10 - taking Concerta for the first time: second day, I've noticed two more things. The procrastination is different, mostly absent, and I can hold multiple thoughts on my head at once, without any of them disappearing!
