About Hanat
Hanat Balimuttajjo helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, anger and relationship strain. She supports those working through self-esteem, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue and trauma. Hanat works with people on practical goals like managing impulses, improving body image and finding life purpose.
Hanat is identified with the NCPS credential. She has five years of experience and practises in the United Kingdom. Her approach is warm and direct, aiming to make conversations feel manageable rather than overwhelming.
Background and approach
Her style draws on person-focused listening and practical techniques. Sessions may include client-centred dialogue, cognitive behavioural tools and mindfulness practices to help notice patterns and try new responses. She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies when clients want clear, goal-directed steps.
Hanat pays attention to cultural differences and the effects of prejudice and discrimination on wellbeing. She helps people unpack guilt, shame and issues tied to multicultural identity. Work can include skills for somatic awareness when stress shows up in the body.
Sessions are intended to be collaborative. Hanat aims to tailor the pace and tools to each person’s needs, whether the priority is short-term problem solving or deeper, ongoing change. Practical exercises and plain-language feedback are typical parts of her work.

Approaches to change you can use online
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. It gives space for someone to tell their story and helps them feel heard while they decide what matters most. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and uses simple, practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting. Mindfulness therapy teaches ways to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without judgement and can reduce stress reactions over time.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. That collaboration means plans can be adjusted if something doesn’t feel helpful or if priorities change.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people have face-to-face conversation without travel, phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can be used for brief check-ins or ongoing reflection. These options make it easier to keep momentum and use tools between sessions.
