Hi, I’m Niina Gullstén
I didn’t set out to be a coach, teacher, or guide.
I was trying to understand a specific pattern:
why perceptive people continue carrying unnecessary load, even when nothing is actively wrong.
I’m trained as an engineer.
I think in systems, patterns, and cause-and-effect.
At the same time, I’ve always been perceptive and aware of unspoken dynamics.
For a long time, I assumed the load was simply the cost of being attuned.
It isn’t.
Why This Work Exists
When sustained stress surfaced in my thirties, it became clear that neither traditional therapy nor spiritual practice addressed the here-and-now load carried by perceptive systems.
Not because those approaches are wrong, but because they don’t focus on how perception itself is processed.
So I built what I couldn’t find.
Over the past two decades, I’ve integrated systems thinking, positive psychology, trauma-informed perspectives, and energetic awareness. Not to develop intuition, but to reduce unnecessary internal load.
The result isn’t dramatic transformation. It’s practical relief.
How I Work
I work with perceptive, analytical professionals who function well, but carry more than they need to.
My focus is simple:
teaching and showing how the system is responding, and how to correct unnecessary load.
This is not mindset work, therapy, or intuition training.
It’s instructional, focused, and designed to be repeatable. Most people don’t need ongoing support.
When the load drops: presence stabilises, boundaries no longer require effort, and decisions stop looping.
About Intuition
Intuition doesn’t need to be developed.
When a perceptive system isn’t overloaded, intuitive signal becomes clearer on its own.
My work supports using intuition cleanly in specific situations,
not cultivating it as an identity or abstract skill.
You don’t need to analyse what’s being released.
Your system already knows how to reset when reminded.
PART 1. SCIENCE
A)Â Unloading And Calming the Mind for Better Intuition (Peaceful phase).
Research shows that a calm, positive state actually improves intuitive problem-solving (Bolte et al., 2003). That’s why I teach simple, evidence-backed methods to reduce overthinking. Joy and play may be involved. This creates the mental space where intuition gets clearer, and informs the following phases.
B) Boundary-Setting Rooted in Emotion Regulation Research (Powerful phase) We use techniques informed by emotion regulation research (Aldao et al., 2010) to help you set and hold boundaries without guilt, avoiding the emotional overload that so often derails highly sensitive people.
C) Meaning and Purpose as Factors in Resilience and Flourishing (Purposeful phase).
Positive psychology shows that living in alignment with your values and purpose boosts wellbeing and flourishing (Seligman, 2011). We’ll clarify your personal “why” (purpose) with your own intuition so your decisions truly align.
PART 2. INTUITION
Science gives us the structure. But intuition is what makes it personal, meaningful, and transformative.
That’s why my method doesn’t stop at evidence-based techniques. It also honours your own inner wisdom, and helps you hear and trust it, even when life feels noisy or overwhelming.
Here’s how that intuitive side works:
I use my trained intuition to guide our work, and support you in using yours.
Years of experience and client feedback show me that I often see or sense the real question beneath the surface issue, often in ways clients describe as “uncannily accurate” or “just what I needed to hear.”
“Niina picked up so quickly what the real issues were, and found the right tools for me.”
You'll hear and understand your own intuition.
I don't tell you who you are or what you should do. I support you in getting beneath the “shoulds and shouldn’ts” so you can hear what your intuition tells you. Whether it’s about boundaries, or your bigger sense of purpose.
We clear the noise so your purpose gets clearer.
Often, life purpose isn’t missing, it’s just buried under obligations, conditioning, and overwhelm. Together, we create the calm, grounded state where your real priorities and values can finally speak clearly.
