About Nadir
Nadir Mothojakan is a counsellor with more than three decades of experience who helps people facing grief, major life changes and difficult relationships. He listens without judgement and offers practical ways to make life feel more manageable. People who are tired, anxious or carrying loss often find a steady presence in sessions with him.
He works with experiences such as abandonment, job loss, serious illness and the slow erosion that comes from long-term stress.
Background and approach
He also supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions and issues around identity and relationships. Nadir aims to help people name what is happening and take small steps to regain a sense of control. In the therapy room he focuses on clear listening and helping people express feelings they may have held back.
He helps clients practise setting boundaries, recognising patterns from childhood, and communicating limits in work or family life. These are practical skills to try between sessions. Nadir uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs, including existential ideas about meaning and choice, acceptance and commitment principles, and attachment-informed work.
He emphasises collaboration so clients shape the pace and focus of therapy. The goal is clearer thinking and more options for action. Nadir holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP.
He offers sessions online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging and works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled according to the therapist's availability.

Online support
How online approaches and therapy methods work together
Existential therapy looks at meaning, choice and responsibility in a person’s life. It helps when people feel lost after big changes or question what matters to them. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings and taking actions that match personal values; it is useful for anxiety, depression and coping with persistent difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with problems in close relationships and emotion regulation.Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try ways of working that fit each person's needs. This is a collaborative process where the client helps decide what feels most useful as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and deeper dialogue, phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited, and text or live chat can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around work, family or travel commitments and to keep momentum between meetings.
