Integrative Psychological Support for Expats
"Niina's sessions come with a calm, holistic and judgement free approach, she has an incredible skill to bring you to the root of the underlaying emotion of the narrative, event or situation. She truly carries her work from a place of humanity and immense empathy rather than solely income based and it's what you feel in her sessions. The biggest recommendation."
"Niina is a great therapist who always makes you feel calm, it always feels like you have someone watching your back rooting for you. She makes you feel at ease and makes it much easier to get in touch with your emotions, with many tools at her disposal to help you feel less overwhelmed. With many tools also comes flexibility, where if something doesn't seem to be working well for you personally she always seems to have something else available to try. I've been working with her for a while, and I've really noticed such a big difference in feeling more grounded & in touch with my own emotions, less overwhelmed when things get difficult and in general feeling a more clear sense of purpose in life. I would highly recommend trying out some sessions with her whether you've never tried therapy or have had another therapist in the past."
"If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I have been on my journey with Your Care Therapy for about 2+ years, and I am utterly grateful to have this space. Being able to have someone that create a safe space and practice co-regulation has been a helping hand in my personal growth. Niina is extremely compassionate, and I love how she personalize her approach to fit something that works with my personality. I am extremely grateful to her, so much so that it is even hard to express this in simple words."
"I have worked with Niina for over one year. The sessions from Niina were very powerful. Niina has an incredible capacity to completely meet me where I was in that moment, without feeling the urge to alter my feelings, thoughts or sensations. This made me always felt very seen and deeply listened to. Also, she has a natural curiosity, focusing on the topic which was truly present for me. Her gentleness and softness create a warm space in which I feel always safe and very comfortable to talk. I recommended Niina to several of my friends and family. Niina encompasses a true gift, making me always see new perspectives with true impact. Therefore, I warmly recommend her for your own Inner Journey!"
"My therapy progress has truly helped me to find balance, be self-aware and believe in my capabilities. Niina is very empathic and understanding, which created a safe space to share my thoughts, reflect on my anxiety and understand the mind better. I finished therapy with a higher self-acceptance, self-esteem and emotional safety. This has increased my quality of life and ability to be appreciative of the great and the harder days and times in my life. Navigating expat life can be tough and Niina’s ability to relate has really helped me to remind me of its advantages and being appreciative of all the relationships with others in my life and to choose a self-determined path."
"The therapy approach of Niina is very calm, focused on feelings and the present moment. During the sessions, she showed an intuitive gift that pinpointed exactly the direction where I could find my own answers. I was amazed of her empathy and caring during the session, creating an open and safe space for me. Even when 2020 was a hectic year for everyone, I was very lucky to have Niina as my therapist. I can totally recommend her!"
My therapy approach is deeply rooted in the connection between body and mind, emphasizing present-moment awareness, trauma-informed and embodied healing. I integrate evidence-based methods with experiential and humanistic techniques, drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment therapy (ACT), Schema Therapy (ST), gestalt therapy and Somatic Experiencing (SE). Together, we explore how emotions, thoughts, and past experiences manifest in your life, using this awareness as a pathway to healing and transformation.
Therapy is a shared journey—one that invites you into deeper presence with yourself. I offer a warm, present, and sensitive space where honesty, attunement and openness guide the process. With deep respect and unconditional positive regard, I support you in tuning into bodily sensations and breath, becoming aware of mind patterns and bringing deeper compassion to different parts of you. Thus, supporting you to cultivate greater ease, trust, and inner strength.
In our work, we explore patterns held in the mind and in the body— tension, avoidance, and conditioned responses that shape how you move through life. This includes addressing conditioning, past traumas, limiting beliefs. By bringing mindful attention to these experiences, we create opportunities for release, integration, and growth. Through this embodied approach, and by fostering self-awareness and responsibility, therapy becomes a space where you can reconnect with yourself, move beyond limitations, and step into a more grounded and fulfilling life.
I am passionate about supporting you, because it is deeply beautiful to see fellow humans regain an aware, loving and genuine connection to themselves to be the person they long to be and live a life they really want to live.
