About Hayriye
Hayriye Mut welcomes people looking for steady support through stressful and painful times. She aims to make the first step less daunting by offering a calm, non-judgemental space to talk about anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strain, addiction concerns and other life pressures. Hayriye explains ideas clearly and keeps sessions focused on small, workable steps that feel achievable day to day.
Hayriye is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which she lists as BACP.
Background and approach
She has five years of professional practice experience and brings that practical background to each conversation. Her work is conversational and direct rather than full of jargon. Her approach draws on attachment-based methods and Psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat in relationships.
She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy tools to help people test unhelpful thoughts and try different coping strategies. For people affected by trauma, she applies trauma-focused methods to reduce distress linked to past events. In a typical session she listens first, then helps identify one or two clear goals to work on between meetings.
Sessions often include simple exercises and reflections to practise between appointments. Hayriye supports people through grief, parenting strain, sleep difficulties, career questions, ADHD-related concerns and ongoing health challenges. She works in English and Turkish and practises in the United Kingdom.

How Hayriye works online
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about what feels most relevant and adapt methods to the person's goals and comfort. Together they pick small steps and check progress regularly rather than following a fixed script.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed and options that avoid being on camera if that helps someone engage. The exact session formats supported should be confirmed before booking so they match the person's needs and routine.
