About Nina

Nina Niemetta is a licensed social worker in Michigan who helps people manage anger along with stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges. She brings 14 years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Her tone is empathetic and nonjudgmental, and she aims to help clients find more balance in daily life.

Nina uses a person-centered approach that centers the client's goals and strengths. She combines that with solution-focused work to identify small, achievable changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ideas are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors.

Sessions are grounded in a whole-person view that addresses body, mind, and spirit. Nina helps clients build coping skills, manage symptoms, and make steady progress toward clearer boundaries and healthier patterns. She also works with issues tied to family of origin, grief, addiction, and caregiver stress.

Nina earned her Master of Social Work from Wayne State University and holds an LMSW, which is a licensed master social worker credential. Her practice emphasizes practical tools and steady progress rather than quick fixes. She encourages people to be active partners in therapy and to try approaches that fit their life.

Clients can expect a respectful, straightforward style focused on problem solving and mindfulness. Nina aims to help people reduce reactivity, increase self-understanding, and carry new skills into everyday moments.

How her approaches translate to online care

Nina combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in a straightforward way. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, validation, and building on a person’s strengths to set realistic goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify patterns of thinking that fuel anger or anxiety and tests new behaviors to reduce reactivity.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple practices that reduce impulsivity and increase moment-to-moment awareness. Mindfulness exercises are short and can be practiced between sessions to help manage stress and urges.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Nina will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and day-to-day life. That choice can change over time as goals shift and new skills are tried.

Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into work or family schedules, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people practice skills in their normal routines and bring real-world examples to sessions for focused problem solving.
