About Hanat

Hanat Balimuttajjo is a counsellor with the NCPS credential and five years of professional experience. She works from the United Kingdom and helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship struggles, self-esteem issues, grief, anger and depression. She also offers coaching around motivation and life transitions and supports people facing cultural and discrimination-related concerns.

Hanat trained in the United States and has worked in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the USA before practising in the UK. She uses straightforward conversations to help people make small, practical changes. Sessions mix talking, goal-setting and skill practice so clients can try new ways of responding outside the session.

Her practice draws on Client-Centred approaches to keep the focus on the person’s own goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ideas are used to identify and change unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns. Mindfulness-based work helps with noticing reactions such as anger or anxiety without getting swept up by them.

Motivational Interviewing techniques are used when people want to change habits such as alcohol or drug use, or to boost follow-through on goals. Solution-Focused methods help create clear, short-term steps that make daily life more manageable. Hanat also pays attention to how the body holds stress and uses approaches that bring bodily awareness into the work.

She supports adults working through control issues, body image concerns, guilt and shame, somatic symptoms and young adult issues. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. To start, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first meeting.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Hanat often uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep the focus on the person’s own goals and experiences. This means sessions centre on listening and responding to what the client says, then shaping work around those goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) gives concrete tools for spotting and changing thought and behaviour patterns that fuel anger, anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy trains noticing bodily and mental reactions so strong emotions are easier to manage.

Finding the right mix of these methods is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide collaboratively which approaches suit a person’s situation, goals and preferences rather than prescribing one way up front. That means practical tweaks and different techniques are tried until something fits.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They can also let someone choose a quieter time of day for a deeper conversation or pick a simpler audio-only meeting if bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find online work helps clients apply skills in their everyday environments.
