Niketa Chohan, BACP

Niketa Chohan is a United Kingdom-based therapist with five years of professional experience and the BACP credential, which indicates membership in the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She specialises in supporting people with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, and challenges with self-esteem and motivation. Her wider practice also includes work with depression, addictions, grief, anger, career concerns, coping with life changes, ADHD, and caregiver stress.

Her style blends client-centered listening with attachment-informed and cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients understand patterns in relationships, manage difficult emotions, and develop practical coping skills. She aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and where therapeutic goals are shaped collaboratively. Beginning therapy often takes courage, and she acknowledges that first step while offering steady support as people start their work.

Niketa focuses on helping clients build greater self-understanding, resilience, and clearer direction so they can navigate challenges more effectively and pursue meaningful change at their own pace.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns in attachment and connection. It helps people explore how past experiences with caregivers influence trust, boundaries, and emotional responses in present relationships, and is useful for issues like abandonment, attachment concerns, and relationship difficulties.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the person’s own goals and pace guide the work. This approach supports self-exploration, improves self-esteem, and is often helpful for stress, low confidence, and navigating life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-oriented method that helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, panic, and compulsive patterns and offers tools for managing symptoms and building coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Niketa works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors sessions based on what is most helpful and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for people balancing work, family, or mobility needs. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions, maintain continuity of care, and access licensed professionals and therapists from different locations while keeping therapy practical and accessible.
