About Nadia
Nadia Mackenzie is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on practical help for parents and adults facing life changes. She brings five years of professional experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. Nadia aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and straightforward.
She uses a relational style and adapts sessions to each person’s needs. Nadia combines person-centred ideas with psychodynamic thinking and cognitive techniques to help people understand what is happening in their lives.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on managing anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, grief and the pressures of work or parenting. In practice she listens first and works at a pace chosen by the client. Conversations are used to identify patterns, name difficult feelings and try small, practical changes.
Nadia helps people develop coping strategies, spot unhelpful thinking and test new ways of relating to others. Many people come to her with relationship and family concerns, career questions or a sense of being stuck after a life change. Others look for support with depression, ADHD-related struggles, bereavement or long-term health challenges.
Nadia also works with issues such as attachment, body image and blended family stress. Her approach aims to increase self-understanding and everyday coping. Over time clients often build more options for how they respond to problems and stronger connections in their relationships.
Nadia encourages people to use what feels most helpful for them and to take small steps towards change.

How Nadia’s approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape current connections; it can help when relationship patterns, separation or parenting worries keep repeating. Client-Centred therapy places the person’s perspective at the heart of the session and aims to build understanding and self-direction through empathic listening and reflection. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood and test new behaviours.Nadia treats finding the right approach as part of the work itself. She will discuss goals and preferences with the person and together they will decide which combination of methods to try. This collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits the client’s needs and pace.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or want ongoing brief support between meetings. These options help fit therapy into busy family, work and day-to-day schedules.
