Hi, I’m Nikita

It is my privilege to support you.

I’m an experienced Mental Health Practitioner offering telehealth counselling across Australia, with a background in private practice, NGOs, community health, and the NDIS.

I support adults and adolescents navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, emotional regulation difficulties, separation anxiety, and complex presentations including high-functioning autism, as well as experiences of domestic and family violence.

I take a person-centred, trauma-informed approach, where you are met as a whole person—not a diagnosis or label, but someone with a unique story that deserves to be heard and understood.

I have a strong focus on culturally responsive care, with extensive experience working alongside diverse communities, including South East Asian and Middle Eastern backgrounds. I understand how culture, identity, and lived experience shape the way we experience and seek support.

My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practice, drawing on CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Gestalt, and strengths-based approaches, always tailored to your needs and pace.

Above all, I aim to create a safe, respectful space where you feel genuinely seen, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change.
