About Hemlata
Hemlata Mistry is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and NCPS, with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief and loss, anger, low self-esteem, and motivation problems. She also addresses concerns such as addiction, eating and food-related issues, and coping with life changes.
Hemlata uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people who have experienced upsetting or overwhelming events. In sessions she talks through what has happened and how it affects day-to-day feelings and reactions. The work is practical and often looks at ways to reduce distress and improve coping skills.
She also supports people dealing with relationship-related patterns such as codependency, abandonment and attachment worries. Conversations can include setting boundaries, recognising repeated patterns, and noticing how past experiences shape current choices. Hemlata pays attention to emotional responses like guilt, shame and emptiness when these come up.
People bring a wide range of life challenges, including career stress, compassion fatigue, and issues around illness and end-of-life care. In those situations she helps clarify immediate needs and next steps, and talks through small, realistic actions that can reduce pressure.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Hemlata offers sessions in English and works from the UK, registered with BACP and NCPS.
How sessions work
Trauma-Focused approaches and online sessions
Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on how distressing events continue to affect thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It often involves talking through difficult memories, noticing unhelpful patterns, and developing practical strategies to reduce intense reactions. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, grief, codependency patterns and the effects of past abuse.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will collaborate with the client to identify what fits their needs and goals. That means trying ways of working, reviewing progress, and adjusting techniques together rather than following a fixed plan.
Confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove the need to travel. Registered or accredited professionals can use these options to support steady, practical change while focusing on what matters day to day.
