About Nina
Nina Niemetta is a licensed social worker with 14 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and challenges tied to trauma and addiction. She also supports people navigating parenting stress, relationship and family problems, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Nina works in Michigan and offers services in English.
Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. She listens first, then helps clients set clear, realistic goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps and small changes that can make daily life feel steadier. Nina uses a person-centered approach and aims for measurable progress. Nina blends cognitive behavioral techniques with mindfulness and solution-focused strategies.
That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice calmer responses, and try short experiments to see what works. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is ready to change but unsure where to start. She believes in treating body, mind, and spirit together.
In sessions clients learn coping skills, problem-solving tools, and ways to repair strained relationships. Work can include setting boundaries, managing impulses, or easing compassion fatigue for caregivers. Nina’s background includes a Master of Social Work from Wayne State University and a Michigan Licensed Master Social Worker credential.
Her approach is practical and collaborative, aimed at helping people find balance and move forward step by step.

How her approaches work online
Nina often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions typically include identifying thinking patterns, testing new behaviors, and practicing skills between meetings to reduce anxiety, anger, or low mood.She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices. Mindfulness helps people manage strong emotions and stay grounded during stress. Solution-focused techniques are used to set clear, achievable goals and try small experiments that build confidence and momentum.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. Nina will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily life, then adapt methods to fit what feels most useful. That shared planning helps make sessions purposeful from the start.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face connection and full conversation work. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and messaging suit short updates, check-ins, or brief coaching between longer sessions. These options give flexibility for scheduling, pacing, and preferred ways of communicating.
