About Niya

Niya White is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in Connecticut, with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on common life pressures like grief, low self-esteem, career stress, and coping with big changes.

She uses talk therapy and solution-focused therapy to help people identify practical steps and build coping skills. Sessions tend to center on current problems and on small changes clients can test between meetings. The goal is clearer thinking and more manageable day-to-day routines.

Niya also supports people facing compassion fatigue and those caring for someone with a serious illness. She talks through stress that comes from caregiving, end-of-life responsibilities, and cancer-related concerns. She helps clients set boundaries, access supports, and find ways to rest amid heavy demands.

Her style is collaborative and respectful. She works with each person to set realistic goals and to track what helps. Expect focused conversation, practical strategies, and checks on progress over time.

Niya asks clients to be active participants in the work. That often means trying small changes between sessions and reporting back what worked. This approach keeps therapy grounded in everyday life and makes progress measurable.

BHow sessions work

Approach and what online sessions look like

Talk therapy focuses on conversation to clarify problems and to notice what keeps them happening. It is useful for grief, relationship strain related to work or caregiving, low self-esteem, and managing anxiety day to day. Solution-focused therapy centers on small, specific steps and on what changes would signal progress. Sessions often set short-term goals and try simple experiments between meetings to see what helps with career decisions or coping during illness. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and choose methods together based on the client's goals, circumstances, and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as the work proceeds. Confirm current session formats before booking, since the biography does not specify them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people maintain continuity of care while balancing work and caregiving demands.
