About Nikita

Nikita Sharma is an ACA counsellor practising in Australia with six years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief and coping with life changes. Nikita speaks English and Hindi and offers a calm, straightforward way of talking about difficult topics.

She helps clients name what is most worrying and make small, practical changes. Sessions focus on coping skills, improving communication and building confidence. Nikita also supports people working through trauma and abuse, and the practical effects these experiences can have on everyday life.

Her approach is conversational and goal-focused. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and works with clients to try different ways of responding. That can mean practising new ways to speak up, testing small social steps, or changing unhelpful routines.

Nikita has worked with issues connected to attachment, avoidant personality, body image and feelings of isolation or emptiness. She also has experience supporting people facing cancer, hospice and end-of-life matters, immigration stress, and the relational strains of infidelity or commitment concerns.

Practical arrangements such as session frequency and costs are discussed directly when booking. Prospective clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a first session. This helps clarify immediate goals and what to focus on in early meetings.

How evidence-based approaches guide online sessions

Many counsellors use evidence-based techniques to address anxiety and relationship patterns. Cognitive-style approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing alternatives, which can reduce worry and improve social confidence. Behavioural techniques involve gradual, planned practice of feared situations and can help with avoidance and phobic reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Nikita will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person’s current goals and comfort level. Together they decide what to try first and how to measure small changes over time.

Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, as the profile does not list them explicitly. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and to have shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows people to meet from wherever is most convenient, reduce travel time and keep progress steady between in-person appointments if those are used.
