About Nikita
Dr. Nikita Mohta is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with ten years of professional experience and HCPC registration. She offers clear, practical help for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or problems with eating and body image.
Parents or professionals juggling life changes often come to her for coaching and support. She draws on well established cognitive behavioural techniques alongside humanistic, attachment-informed work. Mindfulness-based approaches, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy feature in her sessions.
How Nikita works
This mix is used to help people build day-to-day coping skills and notice the habits that hold them back. Clients can expect a collaborative style where their own goals guide the work. Conversations focus on what is most pressing now and on small, usable changes.
Practical tools for managing emotions, improving communication and dealing with relationship strain are a common focus. Dr Mohta has worked across workplaces, colleges, schools and hospitals before moving into independent practice. That variety informs her pragmatic approach to problem solving and to setting realistic steps forward.
She also offers coaching-style support for career and motivation concerns. Sessions are available in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them and choosing values-based actions. It can help when worry, low mood or unhelpful habits make life feel smaller. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and introduces straightforward exercises to change patterns that cause distress. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating difficulties.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client work together to choose methods that match the person's goals, needs and preferences. Sessions may mix approaches so practical skills and longer-term insight both have a place in the work.
Online therapy here is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make sessions easier to fit around life. Video is useful for deeper discussion and working with exercises, phone can be better when bandwidth or hands-free convenience matters, while chat or messaging suits brief check-ins and ongoing support. These formats aim to increase flexibility and make it simpler to keep therapy part of a busy routine.
