About Meltem
Meltem Hussein offers calm, practical support for people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or relationship strain. She introduces simple, manageable steps so people can start to feel steadier. Sessions aim to help clients notice what they want to change and find ways to move forward that suit their life.
Meltem uses talking, drawing and writing during sessions, choosing methods that fit each person. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns.
Background and approach
Cognitive approaches help people challenge unhelpful thoughts and try out new behaviours in daily life. Meltem has five years of practice and holds a diploma in counselling. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, commonly known as BACP.
She continues professional development through specialised training courses. Her experience includes work in independent practice and counselling within a bereavement service. This has involved supporting people with depression, anxiety, bereavement, trauma and relationship difficulties.
She also supports those dealing with identity concerns, parenting stress, work pressure and coping with big life changes. When someone starts with Meltem, she listens to what matters most and adapts the approach. The emphasis is on building practical skills and drawing out the client’s own resources.
Sessions are presented in a respectful, warm and genuine way so people can explore change at a pace that feels right.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and feeling safe with others. Online sessions can use reflective conversation and writing to help people notice repeating patterns and try new responses in ordinary life. Client-centred counselling focuses on building a trusting, non-judgemental space where the client leads the conversation. This approach helps when someone needs to be heard and understood before making changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, works with thoughts, feelings and actions in clear steps to reduce distress and test new behaviours. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems and adapts well to online homework and brief exercises. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic journey. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match the client’s goals, values and practical situation. Expect an open conversation about what is helpful and adjustments over time as needs change. Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face when time or distance make in-person visits difficult. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and suit those who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging enable shorter check-ins, ongoing reflections between sessions, or therapy when sitting down for a longer meeting is hard. Registered or accredited professionals can use these options to make therapy more accessible and easier to fit around work, family and daily routines.Frequently asked
