About Hemlata

Hemlata Mistry is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people who struggle with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, and anger. She also supports clients managing motivation, self-esteem and confidence issues.

Her approach focuses on practical conversations about what is actually happening in daily life. She uses trauma-focused therapy where relevant and helps people name the patterns that keep pulling them back into the same responses. Sessions include talking through recent incidents, identifying triggers, and practising alternative responses to situations that lead to anger or frustration.

Hemlata pays attention to how past experiences shape current reactions. She helps people understand attachment and abandonment themes when these affect relationships or self-worth. She also works with complex responses to distress such as dissociation, shame, guilt and feelings of emptiness.

People contact her about a wide range of concerns beyond anger, including addictions, eating and body-related worries, career stress, and coping with major life changes such as separation or bereavement. She can also help those dealing with compassion fatigue and caregiving challenges around cancer or end-of-life matters.

Her practical style aims to make sessions useful right away. Initial steps are straightforward: describe what is happening, set a small goal, and try one or two things between sessions. This keeps the work focused and makes progress easier to see over time.

Trauma-focused approaches and working online

Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at how past distress shapes present reactions. It helps people understand why a small trigger can produce a large response and supports learning different ways to respond. This approach can be useful when anger is tied to earlier hurt, abandonment or attachment wounds.

In practice she uses straightforward, step-by-step work. That might mean mapping out recent incidents, identifying triggers, and trying new coping steps between sessions. The therapist will discuss what seems most helpful and agree a plan with the client, so approach and pace fit the person's needs and goals.

The profile does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins if needed, and avoid travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt trauma-focused methods for remote sessions while focusing on practical skills that carry over into everyday life.
