About Naina

Naina Pausker works with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression and life changes using a collaborative, person-focused way of working. She uses the client's own experience as the starting point and draws on talking therapies to help people find practical steps forward. Naina is registered with NCPS and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

She offers a calm, listening approach where the client guides the conversation and the counsellor reflects back what seems most important. Sessions often include talking through current challenges, testing small changes between meetings, and reviewing what helps in day-to-day life. Cognitive tools may be used to spot unhelpful thinking and try different responses.

Naina also works with earlier relationship patterns and how these affect current reactions. Psychodynamic ideas can help understand repeated patterns, while client-centred methods keep the focus on what the person wants to address now. This combination aims to make therapy practical and relevant.

Her background includes focused work with people facing abandonment and attachment issues, adoption and foster care matters, body image concerns, caregiver stress, codependency and communication problems. She has also supported people dealing with divorce, dissociation, dependent or avoidant personality features, and mood regulation difficulties.

Naina accepts international clients and offers sessions in English. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, users select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How her approaches are used in online counselling

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's own goals and perspective, with the counsellor reflecting what is said and helping the person find their own solutions. This approach suits people who want a supportive place to talk through decisions and emotions.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It often uses short exercises and practical techniques to try different ways of responding to anxiety, low mood or unhelpful thinking patterns.

Psychodynamic work pays attention to past relationships and repeated patterns that shape current reactions. It can help when someone wants to understand why they react in familiar ways and how to change those patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different methods and decide together with the client what to try, based on the person's goals and preferences. That collaborative decision can change as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins, and let people choose quieter surroundings or lower-bandwidth options when needed.
