About Nina
Nina Niemetta is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 14 years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, trauma and abuse, ADHD, relationship and family problems, grief, and issues around parenting and caregiving.
Nina uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels most urgent. She draws on client-centered methods to listen and center each person's priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are used to notice patterns of thought and test new behaviors in small steps.
Mindfulness-based techniques are offered to help manage intense moments and reduce reactivity. Solution-focused ideas guide short-term goals and clear next steps when people want concrete change. Motivational Interviewing supports decisions about addiction, behavior change, and building new habits.
In sessions she helps people name the problem, try a small experiment, and check what worked. She also addresses family of origin issues, abandonment, codependency, and feelings of emptiness or isolation when those come up. Practical skills for anger, impulse control, and handling caregiving stress are part of the work.
Nina received her MSW from Wayne State University in Detroit. Her practice emphasizes steady progress and real-life coping strategies. To start, readers should confirm available session options and scheduling before booking.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Nina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and trying small behavioral experiments to see if different actions change how someone feels. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening to the client and making space for their priorities while guiding decisions and goals.Mindfulness techniques are also used to help manage strong emotions and reduce reactivity. These practices involve brief breathing or attention exercises and learning to notice sensations and thoughts without immediately acting on them. They can support anxiety, stress, and trauma-related symptoms when combined with practical behavior changes.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early sessions. Nina works with clients to identify their goals and preferences, then adjusts techniques as needed. The process is collaborative and focused on what helps in everyday life.

Mention preferences and practical constraints when scheduling so format and session length can be arranged to suit daily routines.
