About Nikita
Dr Nikita Mohta is a HCPC-registered psychologist in the United Kingdom with 10 years of professional experience. She works with common difficulties such as stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship concerns. She also supports people facing eating and sleeping problems, addiction and grief.
Dr Mohta has worked in a range of settings including corporates, colleges, schools and hospitals before moving into private practice. That variety has given her practical experience of different life demands and organisational pressures. She uses what has worked across these settings to inform her clinical work.
Her style draws on foundational schools of psychology alongside third-wave approaches. Cognitive behavioural techniques are part of her regular work, and she also uses client-centred and attachment-informed methods. Mindfulness-based strategies, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy have been recent areas of focus.
Sessions typically involve talking through current problems and practising straightforward skills to manage strong feelings and unhelpful patterns. She pays attention to how attachment and past losses affect present relationships and everyday choices. Work on body image, eating-related concerns and substance use combines practical steps with exploration of underlying emotions.
Dr Mohta sees people seeking help with career strain, parenting stress and compassion fatigue as well as those living with ADHD, bipolar disorder or depression. She offers help for communication and commitment issues, blended family challenges and caregiver stress. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on understanding and naming emotions and how they shape relationship patterns. It helps when people find it hard to identify feelings or repeat the same interpersonal moves. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasises values and practical steps to live a meaningful life while working on painful thoughts and feelings. ACT is often useful for anxiety, stress and motivation problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early attachment patterns and how they influence current relationships and trust. It is helpful for abandonment fears, commitment issues and close relationship struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods and decide together which best fits the client’s needs, goals and preferences. The choice can change as therapy progresses and as new priorities emerge.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered professionals often adapt exercises for a video or phone setting and focus on practical skills people can use between sessions.
