About Renika

Renika Nakra is a counsellor who uses practical, person-focused approaches to help people manage stress and anxiety. She works with adults on motivation, confidence and career challenges. Sessions also cover coping with life changes and a wide range of emotional concerns.

With five years of practice, Renika adapts her work to each person. She draws on methods such as cognitive behavioural ideas and acceptance-based strategies to help people spot unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding.

Background and approach

Conversations are straightforward and aimed at small, doable steps. Renika aims to make sessions calm and respectful. She listens first, then suggests options based on what each person needs.

That might include skills for emotion regulation, values-based choices, or ways to rebuild self-esteem after difficult events. Her work includes supporting people with relationship worries, grief, trauma and addiction-related issues. She also addresses concerns like sleep and eating problems, parenting stress, chronic illness, and career transitions.

Additional focus areas include body image, fertility stresses and blended family issues. Renika is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients.

Practical details such as session formats and subscription arrangements are shared when arranging appointments.

Ways of working Renika names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Online approaches that meet you where you are

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice hard thoughts and feelings and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and then practising different responses to reduce distress and improve functioning. It often helps with anxiety, sleep problems and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional reactions and can be helpful for intimacy struggles and some relationship issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will try methods that fit those needs. Sessions adapt over time based on what is helpful, so people play an active role in choosing the path forward.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and comfort levels. Video works well for a more conversational session, phone is good when bandwidth is limited, short live chats can work for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel.
