Seyma Gungor is a psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom who supports adults, young people, couples, families, and groups through a range of emotional and behavioural challenges. With five years of clinical experience, she works with issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, grief, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and life transitions, offering tailored care that reflects each client's needs and goals.

Seyma is a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) - a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK. She draws on evidence-informed methods including cognitive behavioral techniques, client-centered principles, and attachment-focused ideas to help clients build coping skills, improve relationships, and manage difficult emotions. Her practice also addresses parenting, career challenges, sleeping problems, compassion fatigue, and a wide range of co-occurring and chronic health concerns.

Sessions are available through multiple formats to fit different circumstances, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Seyma speaks English and Turkish and works with international clients, aiming to create a respectful, collaborative space where people can explore change and strengthen their well-being.

Therapeutic approaches and what online care looks like

Seyma frequently uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build practical strategies to reduce symptoms such as anxiety and depression. CBT is goal-oriented and can be useful for managing mood, stress, sleeping issues, and addictive behaviours.

She also works from a client-centered perspective, which emphasizes empathy, active listening, and a nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship to help clients explore values, identity, and self-esteem. This approach is helpful for relationship difficulties, self-image concerns, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Seyma discusses options with each person, tailors interventions to their needs and preferences, and adapts methods over time so therapy stays relevant and effective.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from wherever the client is located, support continuity of care during life changes, and allow for a mix of short check-ins and longer sessions depending on what the client needs.
