About Nisa
Nisa is a BACP registered and accredited psychodynamic counsellor - BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and she is also an experienced bereavement counsellor trained by Cruse Bereavement Care. She works collaboratively with individuals facing a wide range of concerns, offering steady support while helping them make sense of painful experiences and emotional patterns.
Her practice addresses anxiety, low mood and depression, relationship difficulties, childhood experiences, low self-esteem, grief and bereavement, addiction, narcissistic injuries, obsessive-compulsive difficulties, eating disorders, body dysmorphia, and trauma including victims of crime. Nisa aims to create a non-judgemental space where clients can be heard and understood while exploring practical ways to improve well-being.
When someone is ready to begin, Nisa provides thoughtful, compassionate support to help identify the right path forward and to find the person best suited to share and work through those difficult experiences.
Therapeutic approaches and online support options
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current emotional patterns and relational needs. It helps people understand attachment styles and build more secure, connected relationships by exploring how past experiences influence present behaviour. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and coping strategies; it is often used for anxiety, depression and obsessive-compulsive difficulties. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on addressing the impact of distressing events by gently processing memories and developing skills to reduce trauma-related symptoms and improve daily functioning.
Nisa works collaboratively with each person to determine which approach or combination of approaches best fits their needs, goals and preferences. Deciding on the therapeutic method is part of the process, and she supports clients in making that choice together with a clear, patient plan.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people balancing work, family and travel constraints. These options make it easier to access regular support, maintain continuity of care across locations, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working toward therapy goals.
