About Nikita

Dr Nikita Mohta works with people on stress, anxiety, mood and relationship problems using Cognitive Behavioural approaches and humanistic therapies. She uses acceptance and commitment techniques, mindfulness, and dialectical behaviour methods in sessions. She is registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and has ten years of professional experience in the UK.

Dr Mohta trained to doctorate level in psychology and has worked in a range of settings. Her background includes roles in corporate wellbeing, colleges, schools and hospitals before she set up her own practice. This gives her experience with different life stages and pressures, including workplace stress and academic settings.

She helps people with common concerns such as depression, bipolar mood problems, addictions and grief. She also supports those struggling with eating and sleeping, body image, self-esteem and confidence. Relationship difficulties, intimacy matters and blended family issues are part of her work too.

Her clinical style draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy alongside client-centred, attachment-informed ideas. Mindfulness practice and mindfulness-based cognitive ideas also feature in sessions when helpful. The focus is on practical skills you can use between meetings.

Dr Mohta often works on specific problems such as communication difficulties, codependency, control issues and commitment worries. She also addresses caregiver stress, compassion fatigue and co-morbidity where more than one problem is present. Sessions aim to clarify goals and build manageable steps towards them.

Sessions are delivered in English and she works from the UK. Before booking, users should follow the site process to complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment.

How her approaches inform online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that fit their values; it is often used for stress, anxiety and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing different behaviours to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) emphasises skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with anger, relationship strain and impulse difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor discusses goals and preferences with each person and suggests which methods to try first. They review progress together and adapt techniques if something is not working well for the client's needs.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats through the site before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online counselling can make it easier to fit meetings around work, study or family commitments and can reduce travel time. It also allows sessions to focus on practical skills such as mindfulness exercises, behavioural experiments and communication rehearsal that can be used between meetings.
