Naina Pausker, NCPS

Naina Pausker helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She supports those facing life changes and people looking to build confidence or find motivation. Naina presents as calm and encouraging and makes space for small steps forward.

Her style is straightforward and respectful. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and works alongside them to set practical goals. Conversations focus on what feels manageable and on building everyday skills that make a noticeable difference.

Naina uses a mix of approaches to suit each person’s needs. Cognitive behavioural techniques can help break unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour. Client-centred work focuses on listening deeply and reflecting what matters to the client.

She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences influence current feelings and reactions. This can be useful for people who want to understand recurring patterns, attachment issues, or the impact of early relationships.

Naina holds the NCPS credential, which is listed as NCPS. She has three years of professional experience working with the concerns above. Sessions are available in English and offered to international clients by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

People who want to begin can expect a gentle first conversation to clarify what they want to focus on and plan next steps. The aim is to make therapy feel workable alongside everyday life.

How these approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and validating a person’s experience. Online, this means sessions where the counsellor reflects what the client says and helps them feel understood, which can help with grief, self-esteem and stress.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. In remote sessions CBT can include short exercises, thought records and behaviour plans that are reviewed between meetings to manage anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before, then agree a plan. This is a collaborative process and the approach can be adjusted as needs change.

Online formats offer flexibility for different days and energy levels. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can suit people who prefer writing or need brief, timely support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel.
