About Selim

Selim Guzel uses a client-centred approach to therapy. He offers a warm, non-directive style that aims to help people feel heard and understood. Sessions focus on building a trusting therapeutic relationship where clients decide the pace and topics.

Selim works with issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief and self-esteem. With three years of experience and accreditation from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), he draws on humanistic ideas in his practice.

Background and approach

He pays attention to cultural background and how that shapes identity and belonging. He is comfortable discussing immigration issues, multicultural concerns and experiences of prejudice. Creative methods are available if wanted.

Selim can explore feelings through music, writing, drawing, movement or spoken word. These tools are optional and used to help express things that are hard to put into words. His work also addresses family of origin issues, fatherhood concerns, guilt, shame and loneliness.

He helps people think about life purpose, self-love and repairing relationships with others. Sessions aim to increase self-agency rather than impose solutions. Clients can expect straightforward conversation and reflective listening.

Selim says the client’s own goals guide the work. He aims to support people through difficult experiences and to help them find clearer ways of moving forward.

Online support

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the work, focusing on empathy, acceptance and respect. The counsellor listens carefully and follows the client’s lead to help them explore feelings and values. This approach can be helpful for depression, low self-esteem, relationship worries and grief because it fosters self-understanding and personal agency.

Selim also offers creative, expressive methods as part of his approach when suitable. These might include writing, drawing, music or movement to help express emotions that are difficult to name. Use of creative tools is optional and chosen together with the client based on what feels most helpful.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a joint process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to identify what fits best with the client’s needs, goals and preferences. Sessions begin by exploring what the client hopes to achieve and then shape the work around their aims.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering practical flexibility. Video calls suit in-depth conversations when visual connection matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins or when writing out thoughts feels clearer. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping therapy accessible.
