About Seyma
Seyma Gungor is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works with people facing depression, anxiety and relationship stress. She approaches therapy with practical, person-focused care. Her aim is to help people find clearer ways to cope and make changes that feel manageable.
Seyma holds an MSc in Mental Health Counselling and a BA in Psychology from Niagara University, New York. She is a member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP).
Background and approach
She has practised in London after moving from the United States. Her clinical work draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and client-centred principles. In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns, try different behaviours, and reflect on what matters most to them.
She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and reactions. Seyma has five years of professional experience and has worked across individual and group settings. Her past roles include supporting people with addictions, dual diagnosis, trauma and mood difficulties, and she has experience in therapeutic community settings.
People come to her for a wide range of concerns including stress, self-esteem, grief, sleep problems and parenting strain. She also offers support around attachment and abandonment issues, chronic illness, career difficulties and intimacy-related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Turkish and can take place online or by phone.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to availability. Therapy typically blends practical strategies with reflective conversation to help people move forward at a comfortable pace.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms and preferences and then recommend a mix of methods. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Messaging and live chat suit people who prefer writing or need more frequent, short contacts. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping a steady course towards agreed goals.
