Feedback for Nina
I feel very lucky to have worked with Nina. She is impeccably professional and very skilled – her ability to so subtly and intelligently steer a conversation, raise points, prompt ideas, question thinking is a marvel to experience. She is caring and sensitive, taking everything you say seriously and with respect, but at the same time she manages to question and challenge unhelpful thinking without you feeling patronised or defensive. It’s really impressive (and reassuring) to see someone who can guide a conversation, draw on various methods and psychological theories as needed, remember what you said four sessions ago, take in what you’re saying now, and do it all so kindly and intelligently. Quite a craft, and I have benefited greatly from it
I felt fully supported by Nina and her calm and caring manner has really been a blessing during a particularly difficult transition period of my life
Nina is very professional, skilled, and kind. I initially came with the aim of weight loss and I was very resistant to the idea of needing to focus on anything other than creating a calorie deficit. Working for the past ?18 months with Nina has been enlightening, and the process has made me realise that life isn’t just about appearance and weight, rather that it is for enjoying and living life to the fullest – this in turn has helped my eating patterns. My self-esteem has increased, and my mind can now focus on other thoughts rather than the panic that used to surround food, appearance and eating. I now wear shorts and skirts; I’ve been on dates and I now have strategies that I can use with food. I look forward to continuing to work with her. Thanks Nina!
I really appreciated my therapy sessions with Nina. She was incredibly thoughtful. Through discussing how I felt about different issues in my life, I found I was able to achieve more flexibility which was a goal of mine and to become more aware of my own reasoning behind decisions I made. I plan to carry what we have worked on together with me in all aspects of my day to day life.
