About Nina
Nina Niemetta is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) based in Michigan with 14 years of practice. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, trauma, and changes that come with major life transitions. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental.
Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. She blends client-centered listening with solution-focused techniques to make progress feel manageable. Nina uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and shift small habits that make a big difference.
Background and approach
Mindfulness practices are introduced when helpful to calm the nervous system and improve attention. Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change when they feel stuck. She also supports people dealing with relationship and family problems, grief, anger, addiction concerns, and caregiver strain.
Additional focus areas include abandonment, codependency, blended family issues, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Nina takes a whole-person view, paying attention to body, mind, and spirit while working toward realistic solutions. Her sessions may include skill building, problem-solving, and short-term plans to test out new approaches.
People who choose her often want straightforward support, clear next steps, and a calm space to talk through practical parenting concerns or the stressors that come with day-to-day life.

How Nina’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy means sessions start with your concerns and priorities. The therapist listens carefully and follows what matters most to you, helping you set meaningful goals and work toward them in small steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. This method helps with anxiety, depression, parenting stress, and mood changes by breaking problems into manageable parts and practicing new responses.
Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple practices to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. These exercises can support attention, emotional regulation, and coping during stressful parenting moments.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Nina will discuss options, try strategies together, and adjust the plan based on what helps you meet your goals and preferences.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins or ongoing reflection. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, childcare, or other commitments while still working with a licensed professional.
