Remote therapy and consultancy from the convenience of your home or office, plus face to face or outdoor options

I work with issues relating to identity or belonging, including mixed culture, suspected or diagnosed neurodivergence, or GSRD

I will give you a safe and confidential space, free of judgement, to explore whatever is difficult in your life, and to help you identify what you might want to change

Consultancy

I offer consultancy to teachers, carers and parents around how to support young neurodivergent people at home or in the school environment (e.g. ADHD, PDA, autism).

This is for those that feel they are ‘out of ideas’, or that ‘traditional’ (aka neurotypical) parenting or teaching strategies aren’t working.

I’m Nina

I am a native English-speaking therapist offering in-person sessions in north west Stockholm, and remote work for all clients, whether in Sweden or internationally.

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

I specialise in helping people who struggle to fit in, or don’t know where they belong, especially where issues arise through living a mixed culture life, suspected or diagnosed neurodivergence (e.g. ADHD, PDA, dyslexia, autism), the twin relationship, or confusion around gender, sexuality or relationships.

Update: she`s asked for spaghetti too - whoop!!

I came across an excellent article about the differences between an autistic experience of the world versus a neurotypical one. It is a clear reminder not to make judgements based on your own experience.

In my own personal and professional experience, I have seen these experiences of joy not just in autistic clients, friends and family, but also in ADHDers. I remain curious about the overlap, and how these experiences intersect.

It is a quick read, and really expresses very well some of the joys of autism (and ADHD).
