Background and approach
Over five years she has practised in clinical and community settings, offering individual and group work. Her sessions are practical and plain spoken. She combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy with Attachment-Based, Client-Centred and Cognitive Behavioural ideas.
Together these approaches help address relationship pain, anxiety, low mood and life changes by looking at feelings, patterns and choices. Seyma has experience supporting people with trauma, addictions, grief and long-term health problems. She also helps with parenting stress, career concerns, sleep difficulties and issues around intimacy and self‑esteem.
Her background includes work with people facing co-morbidity and complex life circumstances. Therapy can be offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and international clients are accepted.

Online support
How Emotional and Attachment Work Translate Online
Seyma draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and process strong emotions that affect relationships and self‑worth. EFT aims to name core feelings and then change the interaction patterns that keep people stuck, which can help with intimacy issues, grief and relationship pain.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions. This approach helps when people struggle with abandonment worries, commitment issues or communication problems by exploring how connection needs influence behaviour.
Finding the right way of working is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through different approaches and try methods that fit the client’s goals and preferences. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as work progresses.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when seeing expressions matters, while phone sessions can be quicker check-ins or fit a lunch break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter updates or moments when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to book regular sessions around work, care duties and travel.
