About Nadir

Nadir Mothojakan is a counsellor who aims to support people facing grief, loss and big life changes. He writes with a warm, respectful style and focuses on helping clients regain a sense of control. He listens to difficult experiences tied to relationships, work, health and separation. His approach is practical and centred on the person seeking help.

Nadir has over 33 years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. He offers a space to talk about unemployment, toxic workplaces, abandonment and other losses in straightforward terms. Conversations focus on clear steps clients can try between sessions as well as during them.

Common early steps include setting boundaries, naming and validating difficult experiences, and practising ways to express feelings that have been kept inside. Nadir emphasises collaboration, so goals are agreed together and shaped around each person's priorities. He highlights autonomy and clarity as routes into longer-term change.

His areas of work include anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, addictions and relationship difficulties, and he lists adoption and foster care among his additional focuses. He also addresses the impacts of long-term health conditions and ageing concerns. Practical coping strategies and straightforward reflection are typical parts of sessions.

Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. Nadir invites people to explore a current problem, a specific goal or broader life questions, and he aims to provide steady listening and practical options to try between meetings.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful when someone wants to build a life they care about despite painful feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns shape feelings and reactions. It can help when trust, closeness or abandonment are central concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about their needs and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try. That collaborative process means plans change as goals become clearer.

The biography states that online sessions are offered. Confirm the exact formats available before booking so you know how sessions will fit your routine. Online work can make it easier to attend from different locations, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when days are busy. It also makes it possible to keep momentum between meetings by trying strategies in everyday settings and discussing what happened at the next session.
