About Nikita
Nikita Asokar is a BACP registered counsellor in the United Kingdom. She brings three years of professional experience to sessions and focuses on relationship difficulties, anxiety and stress, grief, trauma and related concerns.
She aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where people can name what they are feeling. Sessions emphasise listening, gentle challenge and practical steps. Nikita helps clients talk through difficult emotions and make small changes that fit their lives.
Her work often begins with understanding the most pressing worry, whether that is low mood, a painful loss or strained connections with others. From there she and the client agree goals and ways to work towards them. Progress is approached in manageable stages so changes do not feel overwhelming.
Nikita describes therapy as a partnership. She provides support and encouragement while helping people develop clearer thinking and coping skills. The aim is to help clients feel more able to handle day-to-day pressures and to care for themselves better.
If someone is considering counselling she asks them to be honest about their priorities and what they hope to change. That helps them both decide whether to meet and how to shape the sessions.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online counselling
Many of the approaches used in counselling involve clear, structured conversations and practical activities. For example, techniques that focus on understanding current thoughts and behaviours help people spot unhelpful patterns and try small, testable changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. Approaches that concentrate on grieving and trauma provide space to tell difficult stories, process strong emotions and develop new ways of coping.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different ways of working and agree a plan together based on needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative exploration helps make sessions feel relevant and manageable for each person.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and removing travel time so appointments are simpler to attend. Some formats may suit short check-ins or quieter conversations, while others allow more in-depth work; please confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to keep continuity of support when life is unpredictable, while allowing the therapist and client to focus on achievable steps between meetings.
