About Nikita

Dr. Nikita Mohta uses evidence-based psychological approaches to help people make practical changes in their lives. She is credentialled with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and has ten years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. Dr Mohta focuses on issues such as stress, anxiety, low mood, and relationship and family concerns, with additional experience in eating and body image problems and addiction-related difficulties.

She has worked in a range of settings including corporates, colleges, schools and hospitals before moving into private practice. That variety shaped a practical, straightforward style that aims to fit therapy around everyday life. Sessions are built to help people manage emotions, improve relationships and tackle unhelpful thinking patterns.

Dr Mohta draws on cognitive behavioural techniques alongside humanistic, attachment-informed ways of working. More recent work has emphasised mindfulness-based approaches, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and skills from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. These methods are used to build coping skills, reduce distress and strengthen personal values and goals.

Her style treats the person as an expert in their own life and focuses on small, manageable steps that add up to change. She aims to support people through grief, life transitions, parenting strain, workplace stress and problems with motivation or self-esteem.

Sessions are offered in English and are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Practical details about how therapy works are discussed during an initial matching and scheduling process.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Dr Mohta commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small actions aligned with those values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and motivation problems because it focuses on values-based behaviour rather than just symptom reduction.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at patterns in relationships that affect how people connect and feel safe with others. This approach can help with intimacy-related issues, attachment wounds and communication problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is another core element of her practice; CBT breaks down thoughts, feelings and behaviours into manageable parts and teaches practical strategies to reduce distress.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then agree a collaborative plan. People are encouraged to try techniques in between sessions and to shape therapy as they go.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video sessions are helpful for full conversations and non-verbal cues, phone sessions can fit into short breaks or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging suits quick check-ins or people who prefer written exchanges. These choices make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and everyday routines.
