About Nadir
Nadir Mothojakan is a counsellor who helps people manage grief, life changes and difficult relationships. He has worked in the field for 33 years and brings a calm, respectful presence to sessions. He listens closely and aims to help people feel heard and understood.
Many clients come with loss from divorce, job change, illness or other stressful events. Nadir helps people name what they are feeling and find ways to adjust.
Background and approach
He emphasises clear communication and learning to set boundaries where needed. Sessions often focus on expressing emotions that have been held in for years. He encourages practical steps such as identifying limits at work, validating the impact of unemployment or toxic environments, and practising direct expression of feelings.
These small changes are used to build a greater sense of control in day to day life. Nadir uses a collaborative style that puts the person’s goals first. He draws on approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to shape conversations and choices.
The work is paced to suit each person’s needs and readiness for change. He also supports people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, the effects of long-term health conditions and issues linked to identity, including LGBT concerns. Nadir offers online work and will use the approach that best fits a person’s situation and aims.
People who want to explore a specific goal or current challenge can expect steady listening, practical ideas and an emphasis on reclaiming agency in everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing values-based actions. It is often useful when someone is facing big life changes, persistent worry or grief and wants clearer direction rather than symptom control. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It can help people who struggle with boundaries, trust or repeating painful relationship dynamics to see those patterns and try new ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk through your needs, goals and preferences and choose methods together. That collaborative process means the approach can shift as progress is made or priorities change.
The biography notes that online sessions are offered. Please confirm which specific session options are available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when life is hectic. It can also make it simpler to maintain continuity of support when coping with relocation or long-term health issues. Registered or accredited professionals will adapt pacing, tools and homework to suit remote sessions so the work remains focused on practical steps and emotional understanding.
