About Nina
Nina Niemetta is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with 14 years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, mood disorders, ADHD, addictions, and relationship and family problems. She also lists parenting, grief, anger, self-esteem, bipolar mood issues, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue among her focus areas.
Nina uses a person-centered style in sessions. That means conversations focus on the client's priorities and experiences. She blends straightforward methods like cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused work to identify patterns and try practical changes.
Many adults notice patterns that trace back to how they were raised. Nina names family of origin issues among her interests and can talk through roles, expectations, and repeated reactions that came from childhood. She also addresses abandonment, blended family questions, codependency, and control issues when those come up.
Sessions incorporate mindfulness techniques to slow down overwhelming thoughts and motivational interviewing to help clarify what people want to change. Work often looks like noticing automatic reactions, testing small behavior shifts, and reflecting on progress from week to week.
Nina earned a Master of Social Work from Wayne State University and holds her Michigan LMSW credential. Conversations are plain and practical, aimed at helping someone reduce distress and make usable changes in daily life.
Therapeutic approaches used in virtual sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and priorities. Sessions look like open conversation where the therapist reflects back what she hears and helps the client clarify goals. This approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. In practical terms this can mean identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing different responses, and trying small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression symptoms.
Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to present-moment experience and simple exercises to notice stress reactions. It can be useful for managing racing thoughts, impulsivity, and emotional reactivity.
Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and daily life. That can mean adjusting what is tried over several sessions based on what the client finds useful.
Confirm current session formats before booking to know what is offered. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can fit therapy into work or family schedules, avoid travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when needed. Therapists generally help match session length and frequency to what fits a client's routine.
