Nina Mitchell

Welcome

I am an integrative therapist, which means I have training in many different therapy styles rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. This includes CBT, person centred, solution focused and narrative therapy, as well as bereavement training with the NHS and mental health training for businesses. In addition to my therapy work, I am a transformational life coach and mindfulness practitioner, therefore I can offer a wide variety of tools and approaches to best fit my clients.

You may have tried therapy or coaching before but felt it didn’t work for you. Research tells us that successful outcome is dependent on the relationship you have with your therapist or coach; it is crucial you feel you have a good ‘fit’ and that you feel understood and listened to when discussing things that are difficult, and that you have determined the goals to help you move forward. Seeking support can be a minefield, therefore I have outlined some important differences in therapies, and coaching, to help you decide what’s best for you. Please take a look at my FAQ page for more info. I offer a no obligation call to answer any questions and help determine the best way forward so that you can begin your journey towards a more positive, productive life.

Solution Focused & Goal Orientated
