About Nikita

Nikita Asokar is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She has three years of professional experience supporting people through hard times. Nikita aims to make beginning therapy straightforward and approachable for anyone who is nervous about taking that step.

How Nikita works

Sessions are intended to be a space where people feel heard and respected while they consider change. Her way of working is collaborative. Nikita supports clients to set goals and decides together what to focus on during sessions.

She balances practical steps with time to reflect, helping people try things between meetings and notice what changes. Nikita places importance on creating a non-judgemental atmosphere. She invites straightforward talk about what is worrying someone right now and what would feel more manageable.

The aim is to build steadier ways to cope, whether the concern is day-to-day stress or a painful life event. People can expect a calm, supportive approach that moves at their pace. Nikita helps people notice patterns, try small adjustments, and recover a clearer sense of control over their lives.

If someone is ready to start, she guides them through the next steps and practical arrangements.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions that fit your life

Many evidence-based approaches focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common method helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another approach concentrates on working through loss or trauma at a pace that feels manageable, helping someone make sense of painful events and rebuild routine and meaning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Nikita will discuss options with each person and decide together what feels most useful for the issues and goals presented. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions, whether someone needs brief practical tools or longer reflective work.

Online therapy with Nikita is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let people use visual cues and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging can support shorter check-ins and regular contact between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit counselling around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on progress and wellbeing.
