About Karina
Karina Nipane NCPS offers support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship worries, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She is approachable and calm, and she aims to help people find clearer thinking and more steady emotions. Karina's style is collaborative and paced to what each person needs. She works in plain language and focuses on practical steps as well as understanding feelings.
Karina has three years' experience working in a range of mental health settings. Before qualifying in psychotherapeutic counselling practice she supported people in crisis and distress, offering immediate emotional care and guidance. That background informs how she responds to urgent worries and helps people feel heard.
Her approach is pluralistic, which means she draws from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, psychodynamic ideas and humanistic ways of working. Sessions can include looking at patterns of thought and behaviour, making small practical changes, and discussing personal history where that helps. The emphasis is on tailoring the work to each person rather than using one set method.
She also helps people with issues such as attachment and abandonment, body image, chronic pain or illness, codependency, eating and food-related concerns, and loneliness. Karina supports people facing life transitions including pregnancy, postpartum challenges and immigration-related stress.
Karina works in English and practises in the United Kingdom. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used so the person can schedule sessions that suit their needs.
How Karina’s approaches translate to online therapy
Karina draws from a few evidence-based techniques to help people make change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviours to reduce anxiety and low mood. Psychodynamic ideas help people understand repeating patterns that come from past relationships and how those patterns affect current stress and attachment. Humanistic approaches centre on the person's own values and goals, supporting self-understanding and practical change.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Karina treats the decision as collaborative and will adapt techniques to match a person's goals, pace and preferences. Together they review what helps and change course if needed.
If you are considering online sessions, check the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer talking with a counsellor remotely because it lets them join from quieter surroundings or during a lunch break. Confirm the available formats when you book so you can choose what best fits your routine.
