About Nikita
Dr. Nikita Mohta is a HCPC-registered psychologist in the United Kingdom with 10 years of professional experience. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, mood and eating concerns, relationship and family difficulties, self-esteem and confidence, and other life challenges.
She trained to doctorate level in psychology and has worked across workplaces, colleges, schools and hospitals before establishing her own practice. That background means she is used to helping people in a range of everyday settings and pressures.
In sessions she draws on core psychological approaches and third-wave therapies. Cognitive behavioural techniques are a regular part of her work, alongside humanistic methods that centre the person's own perspective. Mindfulness-based strategies, acceptance and commitment work, and elements of dialectical behaviour approaches feature in her practice.
Dr. Mohta describes clients as the experts on their own lives and looks to build on existing strengths. Conversations focus on clear, practical steps as well as noticing thoughts, feelings and patterns that cause difficulty. She also offers support around issues such as grief, addiction, parenting strain, LGBT concerns, ADHD and compassion fatigue.
People who choose to meet with her can expect a direct, steady approach that mixes skills training with reflective discussion. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session.
How her therapeutic approaches work online
Dr. Mohta commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. ACT encourages noticing thoughts and choosing actions based on personal values rather than on unhelpful thinking patterns, which can help with anxiety and avoidance. CBT focuses on recognising thought and behaviour patterns and practising new skills to reduce distress and improve coping.She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to understand how early relationship patterns affect current connections. This can be useful for people who struggle with close relationships, trust or intimacy-related issues. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process; the therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful during early sessions.
If you are considering remote sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking as formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. The emphasis is on practical therapy that fits around everyday life while using ACT, CBT and attachment-based techniques to address anxiety, relationships and related concerns.
