About Hanat

Hanat Balimuttajjo helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship and self‑esteem concerns, and cope with life changes and trauma. She works using conversations that focus on goals, practical steps and increased self‑awareness. Hanat is registered with NCPS and has five years of counselling experience in the United Kingdom and internationally.

She offers straightforward counselling and coaching that aims to improve day‑to‑day functioning. Sessions often include talking through current problems, learning new ways to respond to difficult feelings, and setting realistic actions to try between appointments. Hanat uses a mix of client‑centred approaches, cognitive work, mindfulness and solution‑focused techniques depending on what each person needs.

Her background includes practice across different countries, with experience supporting people facing alcohol and chemical dependency, compassion fatigue, grief, anger and depression. She also works with issues such as body image, guilt and shame, control and impulsivity, and questions about life purpose. Multicultural concerns and experiences of prejudice and discrimination are part of her stated focus.

In sessions she may use Motivational Interviewing to build motivation for change and Solution‑Focused Therapy to set small achievable goals. Mindfulness techniques and cognitive strategies are used to help with anxiety, stress and unhelpful thought patterns. The overall aim is practical: clearer coping skills and small steps that fit daily life.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The service uses a cancellable subscription payment model that varies by location.

How Hanat uses counselling approaches online

Hanat commonly works with client‑centred counselling, cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness techniques. Client‑centred counselling involves listening to what matters to the person and shaping sessions around their concerns and goals. Cognitive behavioural techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behaviour changes to reduce symptoms. Mindfulness practice brings attention to present‑moment experience, which can help with stress, anxiety and grounding after difficult events.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hanat will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. She uses practical exercises, goal setting and short skills practice, and adjusts the mix as progress is reviewed together.
