Her clinical experience spans ten years across workplaces, colleges, schools and hospitals before she moved into independent practice.
Background and approach
This variety means she is familiar with different pressures and life stages. Typical concerns addressed include anxiety, mood problems, eating and body image issues, relationship strain and family conflict. She also supports people dealing with grief, addictions, ADHD and career or parenting stresses.
Phobias are listed among her areas of focus where avoidance and anxiety create real limits on daily life. In sessions she blends Cognitive Behavioural interventions with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy techniques. Attachment-based thinking and client-centred listening shape how she works with relationships and self-esteem.
Mindfulness plays a central role in helping people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Dr. Mohta aims to make therapy a collaborative process.
She treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for practical steps that fit their circumstances. The goal is to build skills, reduce distress and help people move towards more meaningful daily routines.
Working with CBT, ACT and attachment ideas online
Dr Nikita Mohta often uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural experiments. CBT is useful for anxiety, phobias and low mood because it focuses on practical changes and problem solving.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship patterns and self-esteem by looking at how early connections affect present behaviour.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist works collaboratively to choose methods that match each person’s needs, goals and preferences. Together they review what is helping and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone calls suit those with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, and messaging or chat can be useful for brief check-ins and between-session support. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family and day-to-day life while keeping continuity of care.
