About Nina
Nina Niemetta, LMSW, is a Michigan-based licensed social worker with 14 years of experience supporting adults through stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and trauma-related concerns. She offers a calm, empathetic presence and focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day. Sessions emphasize respect and listening first, then clear goals and measurable progress.
Nina uses person-centered methods that prioritize each client's voice. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors.
Background and approach
Mindfulness practices are offered to build attention and calm in the moment. Her style is collaborative and solution-focused. That means short-term strategies are combined with deeper exploration when needed.
Nina helps people develop coping tools they can practice between sessions. She also brings motivation-based approaches to help with change when habits or addictions get in the way. The work is paced to match what the person can manage, with clear steps toward their goals.
Nina describes her outlook as holistic, attending to body, mind, and spirit when clients want that. She aims to make therapy feel useful and grounded rather than abstract. People seeking help with relationships, parenting stress, impulsivity, family-of-origin issues, or life transitions will find focused, practical support.
Nina offers in-session exercises and homework so new skills stick.
How her methods translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting the person where they are. In practice this means the therapist reflects concerns, helps set priorities, and adapts sessions to what feels most useful. It is effective for building trust and clarifying goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to change them. Clients learn exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and small behavioral experiments to test new ways of coping, which can help with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related routines, and impulsivity.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up in daily life. Together they pick strategies to try, adjust them over time, and track what helps most.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face work and guided exercises. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people share updates or get support between sessions with flexible timing. These options help people practice new skills in real time and keep momentum between meetings.
