About Nadia

Nadia Sultani uses a client-centered approach to guide people through hard moments. She is a Licensed Master Social Worker - LMSW with 24 years of practice in Michigan. Nadia keeps sessions straightforward and focused so parents and adults can make steady progress.

She speaks English and Arabic which helps when culture affects how people cope. Nadia helps with common problems like stress, anxiety, depression, and grief. She also supports people facing changes in work or family life, struggles with sleep or eating, and ongoing worries like obsessive thoughts.

Background and approach

Her listing includes a range of concerns from ADHD and bipolar to parenting and intimacy-related issues. Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, motivational interviewing, and client-centered methods. That means she helps people notice patterns, try practical changes, and tap their own strengths.

Sessions tend to be down-to-earth and goal-focused rather than long lectures. Nadia pays attention to cultural background and life stage when planning care. She mentions experience with multicultural concerns, postpartum mood changes, seasonal affective disorder, and aging or geriatric issues.

Those areas shape how she frames strategies and supports. In conversations she aims to build skills for day-to-day life. Parents often discuss routines, sleep, and behavior strategies while adults may work on communication, coping skills, or managing compulsive patterns.

The emphasis is on clear steps clients can use between sessions. People connect with her through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging options. International clients may also work with her, and practical details like cost follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online access

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust so people can explore what matters to them and decide on next steps. It helps when someone needs a compassionate space to talk through parenting stress, grief, or identity questions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and compulsive patterns by breaking issues into manageable steps.

Motivational Interviewing supports readiness for change by drawing out a person's own reasons for shifting habits. It pairs well with goals around addiction, career moves, or adjusting routines after big life changes.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before, and then try methods that fit. This is a collaborative process that can be adjusted over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around parenting schedules, work, or limited mobility. They also allow follow-up, brief check-ins, and homework support between longer sessions to keep progress moving forward.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
