About Nadir

Nadir Mothojakan is a counsellor who helps people manage anger alongside other life challenges. He listens with warmth and respect and supports people who are grieving, facing job loss, or coping with big life changes. Nadir offers practical steps so people can feel more in control of their day-to-day life.

He pays close attention to difficult relationships from childhood or adulthood. Nadir helps people name feelings they have kept quiet and practice expressing them with more confidence. He works with people who are stressed by work, illness, or relationship strains and helps them set clearer personal boundaries.

Sessions focus on straightforward, manageable tasks. These include identifying limits, validating difficult experiences, and finding ways to speak about painful memories. Nadir uses listening, gentle challenge, and practical techniques to help people try different ways of coping.

His experience includes supporting people with anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, and the impact of long-term health conditions. He also supports those facing parenting pressures, identity concerns, and sleep or eating difficulties. Anger is one of the areas he addresses as part of this wider work.

Nadir holds BACP registration, which appears as BACP, and he has been working in the field for over 33 years. He offers online sessions and aims to tailor his approach to what each person needs. If someone wants to focus on a specific problem or goal, he can help plan the steps to get started.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match what matters most. It is useful for anxiety, anger, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with stress, depression and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences, and adapt techniques over time as things change. This is a collaborative effort rather than a fixed prescription.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as specific online formats are not listed here. Online work can make fitting therapy into busy lives easier by removing travel time and allowing sessions during breaks or from a convenient location. It also makes it possible for people in other countries to take part, and can allow for shorter check-ins or longer therapy blocks depending on what the person needs.
