She has provided one-to-one therapy, group work and community-based support in previous roles. This practical variety shapes how she tailors plans for different challenges. In sessions Seyma aims to help people build coping skills and clearer communication.

How Seyma works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours. In an online setting this often means learning simple tools, practising them between sessions and reviewing what helped or did not help.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. This collaborative planning means sessions can shift focus as needs change.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit work into everyday life. It can remove travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a busy day and let people join from different locations, including from abroad since international clients are accepted. The biography lists online and telephone counselling as methods previously used, but confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered.
