About Misma
Misma Hemming is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma and abuse. She also supports clients facing relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting and family strains, addictive behaviours, eating concerns, anger, low self-esteem, career changes, bipolar-related challenges, ADHD and other life transitions. She writes plainly and works to make conversations direct and useful.
Misma has around ten years of experience in the field. Her background includes work in the national health service, universities, charities and independent practice.
Background and approach
She holds a Master of Science and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). In sessions she tailors the conversation to each person. She listens for the patterns that keep problems returning and then tries small, practical changes that can make day-to-day life easier.
Misma aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can speak honestly about what is hard for them. She approaches trauma and related concerns with care, pacing the work so people feel able to manage strong emotions. She also offers coaching-style support for practical goals like managing work stress or improving routines.
The focus is on what helps in everyday life rather than technical labels. Misma accepts international clients and offers several remote formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used so people can be paired with a suitable therapist and book sessions according to availability.

Practical approaches for online trauma and life challenges
Many of Misma’s sessions use evidence-based therapeutic techniques designed to reduce symptoms and improve daily coping. One common technique focuses on stabilisation and grounding - simple exercises and routines that help reduce overwhelming feelings and bring attention back to the present. This approach is helpful for people dealing with strong stress, anxiety, or trauma reactions.Another approach emphasises skills-based work such as emotion regulation, problem solving and behavioural changes. These skills help people manage mood swings, addictive urges, anger, or the ups and downs of bipolar conditions by building routines and testing small, achievable changes.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Misma will work with each person to identify goals, try methods that suit their needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. She combines listening with practical steps so people can see what works for them.
Online therapy offers flexibility and makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help, phone sessions suit people with limited bandwidth, and live chat or text-based messaging can provide shorter check-ins or ongoing written support. These options can help people attend sessions from different locations and at times that work around work or family commitments.
