Nina Powell

Nina Powell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with three decades of direct practice experience. She focuses on grief, life changes, caregiver stress, and career concerns alongside common issues such as anxiety and depression. Her style is practical and compassionate, aimed at helping people manage difficult moments and find ways forward.

She spent many years helping people affected by domestic violence and those living with disabilities. Much of her recent work has involved adults, children, and caregivers facing cancer. That work includes counseling for people in treatment, support for caregivers, and help for parents who are guiding children through illness and loss.

Nina also provides intensive bereavement counseling for people who have experienced sudden or traumatic loss. She helps clients name their feelings, make sense of what happened, and develop daily routines that support healing. Her background includes work around hospice and end-of-life needs, and she is familiar with the stresses families face during those times.

In sessions she uses client-centered listening alongside approaches drawn from cognitive behavioral, emotionally focused, narrative, and psychodynamic therapies. That mix lets her match interventions to a person’s needs, whether the priority is coping skills, processing painful memories, or repairing relationships.

She works from Florida and communicates in English. Nina encourages people to reach out when they are ready to explore next steps and to use the site’s Start Therapy button to begin the matching process.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and identify the changes they want to make in their daily lives. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills for reducing anxiety, managing grief-related distress, and building coping routines. Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name emotions that get in the way of connection and healing, which can be useful for relationship strain and processing loss.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. That collaborative process shapes which techniques are used and how sessions proceed over time.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use different methods to help people practice skills between visits, work on grief or career decisions, and keep therapy focused on practical steps that fit everyday life.
