She draws on person-centred ways of working alongside cognitive-behavioural methods to tackle problems such as anxiety, low mood and sleep difficulties. Seyma works in the United Kingdom and speaks English and Turkish.
Seyma trained with a Master of Science in Mental Health Counselling and holds a B.A. in Psychology from Niagara University, New York. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists, BACP. Over five years she has worked in both the US and the UK settings and supported people through a range of mental health concerns.
Sessions focus on the person's experience and goals. Seyma uses cognitive-behavioural tools to identify unhelpful patterns and person-centred listening to help people feel heard. She also brings in mindfulness and emotionally focused ideas when they fit the issue being discussed.
Her clinical work has included supporting people with addiction recovery, trauma and post-traumatic stress, grief and complex mood problems such as bipolar disorder. She has provided one-to-one therapy, group work and community-based activity support during her practice.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work
Attachment-based ideas focus on understanding how early relationship patterns affect current reactions. In sessions this often means noticing how people respond to closeness, trust and conflict and then trying new ways of relating that feel safer.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people spot thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep issues because it breaks the cycle of unhelpful patterns and supports practical changes you can try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy and is decided together. Seyma will work with the client to match methods to their goals, needs and everyday routine so therapy feels relevant and doable.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel, and allow check-ins when life is hectic. The original profile indicates she offers online counselling and telephone work, but readers should confirm which formats are currently available before booking. Many people find remote sessions help maintain continuity of care while juggling work, family and sleep routines.
