  • Naheed Hidayet (Client Support Specialist)

    Naheed is currently in the first year of training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) at Goldsmiths University, working toward qualification as a CBT therapist. While still at the beginning of her clinical journey, she has already gained valuable experience and developed skills in working with common difficulties such as anxiety, low mood, OCD, and PTSD. Naheed understands how challenging these experiences can be and is committed to working alongside clients in a warm, supportive space where goals can be set collaboratively and practical skills explored to help make life feel more manageable.

    CBT is the primary therapeutic framework Naheed is training in, but she also has an interest in approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based strategies, which she may draw upon depending on the client’s needs.

    She recognises that starting therapy can feel like a significant step and aims to provide a space that feels safe, respectful, and supportive — where clients feel heard and empowered to begin exploring meaningful changes in their lives.

  • Dipalika Mohanty

    Dipalika has a goal of contributing to accessible and inclusive therapy. This led her to pursue MSc in Clinical Health Psychology, making the distance from India where she worked across different settings using her lived experience to build unique relationships with each individual.

    She brings her experience of working with individuals who have complex needs and believes in a collaborative approach that maximises each person’s internal resources. She draws from evidence-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and grounds her approach in people’s personal values. She hopes to foster a guided discovery where clients are able to lead their own journey to recovery.

    Her experience with the healthcare system in the UK has shaped her approach to be reciprocal, progressive and safe, drawing from her ongoing recovery. She recognises that recovery is multifaceted and aims to challenge systemic barriers. She firmly believes that everyone is worthy of recovery and care, and finding support within the right service can help facilitate that. Everyone has a personal journey, and this motivates her to improve recovery for others

Book A Session


At CBT With Nicole, we offer a range of individual and group-based services to support recovery in a practical, compassionate, and evidence-informed way.

Whether you're working through anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, or disordered eating patterns, our services are designed to meet you where you are — and help you move toward a healthier relationship with food and your body.

Meal Support Groups

Our meal support groups provide structure and guidance while eating in a safe, supportive environment. Facilitated by trained professionals, these sessions help reduce anxiety, support accountability, and promote consistent, recovery-focused eating.

Meal Processing Groups

Held after meal support, these groups offer a space to reflect on the emotional and cognitive experience of eating. Clients are supported in identifying thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that came up during the meal and begin to build new, healthier coping strategies.

1:1 Meal Support & Processing

For those who prefer individualised attention, we also offer one-to-one meal support and processing. These sessions are tailored to your specific recovery goals and offer more privacy and flexibility.

Grocery Store Support

We understand how challenging food shopping can be in recovery. Our clinicians offer in-person or virtual grocery store support, helping you plan, navigate the store, challenge fear foods, and reflect afterward. The goal is to reduce anxiety and build confidence in making food choices that align with recovery.

Dietitian Services

Our lead dietitian provides expert, compassionate nutritional support to complement your psychological treatment. Services include:

  • Collaborative meal planning

  • Guidance on balanced eating in recovery

  • Support for reintroducing fear foods

  • Coordination with your therapist for integrated care

Our lead dietitian offers specialised, evidence-based nutritional support tailored to eating disorder recovery. These services are distinct from therapy or life coaching — they focus specifically on the physiological and nutritional aspects of recovery, including meal planning, education, and support with reintroducing foods.

While therapy and coaching at CBT With Nicole may be eligible for funding through the Vivregoodby Fund, please note that dietitian services are privately billed and not covered under this program.

Dietitian services are available as a stand-alone support or can be integrated alongside your therapy or coaching for a collaborative care approach.
