About Nadir
Counsellor Nadir Mothojakan is a BACP counsellor with 33 years of experience. He works with people dealing with grief, family issues, career change and stress among other concerns. He offers help for anxiety, depression, trauma and the effects of long-term health conditions.
Nadir listens to what has happened and what is still difficult now. He helps people name feelings and set practical boundaries at work and in personal life. Sessions often focus on what a person wants to be able to do differently and small steps to get there.
He combines several approaches depending on the issue presented. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) can be used to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current trust and closeness. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people to accept difficult thoughts while acting in line with what matters to them.
Nadir also draws on client-centred and dialectical behaviour techniques when they suit a person’s goals. He describes practical work such as boundary setting, validating understandable reactions to loss, and ways to express long-held feelings. The focus is on clear, doable steps rather than labels.
He works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions remotely. People who want to try counselling are asked to use the online matching and booking route explained on the site. The process begins with a short questionnaire and then arranging the first session.
How his therapeutic approaches fit with online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help with grief, anxiety and long-term health issues by focusing on practical next steps.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It is useful for anxiety, depression and managing unhelpful habits by teaching clear techniques to test and change thinking patterns.
Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current expectations and closeness. This work can support people who struggle with trust, abandonment or recurring relationship problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and agree a way forward together. That collaborative choice may bring in one method or combine several as needed.
The profile notes that Nadir offers online sessions. Please confirm which remote formats are currently provided before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins if needed, and avoid travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to keep the focus on practical change and continuity of support.
