About Nikita
Nikita Jones works with relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, depression, stress and anxiety using a blend of approaches and collaborative planning. She is registered with NCPS (National Counselling Service) and has four years' experience in counselling work in the United Kingdom.
Nikita has worked in a variety of settings, including a rape crisis service and a leading UK cancer charity, as well as in private practice. Her background means she is used to supporting people who are coping with grief, serious illness, bereavement and the practical effects of trauma.
Her way of working is integrative. She uses attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening, solution-focused tasks and trauma-informed methods depending on the issue presented. Sessions focus on building a working relationship, clarifying goals and choosing techniques that fit the person’s needs.
She describes specific work on traumatic memories that involves guided imagery and a series of focused sessions to separate strong emotional reactions from the memory. This approach is presented as structured, clinician-led sessions that aim to reduce nightmares, flashbacks and intense re-living of events over a course of sessions.
Nikita works with issues such as addictions, parenting strain, career difficulties, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue. She also notes additional focus on attachment and abandonment issues, blended family questions, body image and a range of personality-related concerns.
Sessions are offered in English and Hindi, and she accepts international clients. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
How her therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Nikita uses attachment-based work and trauma-focused methods alongside client-centred listening. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current trust and closeness, and it can help with relationship and intimacy difficulties. Trauma-focused methods involve guided re-imagining and structured sessions to reduce intense emotional reactions to past events, aiming to lessen nightmares and flashbacks. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening and reflecting to help people clarify what they want to change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss needs, goals and preferences with the client and agree a plan together. That plan can be adjusted as sessions progress so the methods remain relevant and practical.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around daily commitments and reducing travel time. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as options are not listed here. Many people find online sessions easier to schedule around work, shorter commute times and helpful for maintaining continuity when life is busy.
