About Nina

Nina Niemetta is a licensed social worker in Michigan who focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, depression, ADHD, and relationship and family struggles. She brings 14 years of clinical experience and aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what feels overwhelming. Nina uses straightforward, practical support so people can take the next steps in daily life.

She works from a person-centered stance that respects each individual's goals and rhythm. Nina integrates solution-focused ideas to set small, manageable goals and uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness strategies are offered to reduce reactivity and build moment-to-moment coping skills.

Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Wayne State University and years of work with adults, parents, and family-related issues. That experience includes helping people with grief, anger, codependency, caregiver stress, and challenges tied to mood disorders and addictions.

Sessions emphasize practical tools and steady progress. Nina often blends motivational interviewing to support readiness for change and solution-focused therapy to identify next steps. She aims to help people improve daily functioning, manage symptoms, and build routines that fit their lives.

People seeking help for parenting strain, pregnancy-related stress, or difficult life transitions may find her approach relevant. She supports people navigating the emotional side of pregnancy and childbirth concerns alongside other stressors.

Approaches that translate well to online support

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs a respectful space to sort feelings and set personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that worsen anxiety or depression; it often uses clear exercises and homework that work well across sessions. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and manage stress in daily life.

Nina will work collaboratively to find the best fit among these approaches. Early sessions typically explore current needs, goals, and what techniques feel useful, then the plan is adjusted as progress is seen. This helps tailor the mix of strategies to each person's preferences and situation.

If you prefer online work, confirm the available session formats before booking so arrangements match your needs. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when appropriate, and let people use mindfulness and CBT exercises between meetings. Talk with Nina about how therapy can fit your routine and which methods feel most practical for you.
