About Seyma
Seyma Gungor works from an approach that places relationships and personal meaning at the centre of therapy. She combines attachment-informed thinking with client-centred care and practical cognitive behavioural strategies. Seyma is a BACP member and brings five years of professional practice in the United Kingdom to her work.
Seyma aims to make sessions straightforward and focused. She listens for patterns in relationships and emotional reactions. Then she helps people try new ways of thinking or behaving that feel doable in everyday life.
Background and approach
Her experience covers a wide range of concerns. These include stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar difficulties, addictions, trauma and grief. She also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strains, career stress and changes linked to illness or caregiving.
Seyma draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds shape current relationships. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to break unhelpful thinking and build coping skills. Client-Centred Therapy guides how she offers a warm, non-judgemental space while clients set the pace and goals.
Sessions can be arranged by video call, phone, live chat or messaging, which gives flexibility around work and family life. Seyma speaks English and Turkish and works with people in the UK and internationally. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions as offered.

Therapeutic approaches for online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape emotional responses today and helps people change patterns that cause repeated pain. Client-Centred Therapy provides a respectful, non-judgemental space where the person leads the pace and topics, which can help when clients need to feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and trying practical experiments to reduce anxiety, improve sleep or manage low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Seyma will discuss different methods with each person and decide together which fit the presenting problems, goals and personal style. That collaborative process can change over time as needs shift.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow more direct conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging make it possible to fit brief sessions around work or caring commitments and to use text when being on camera is not wanted. These options give flexibility and help people maintain continuity of care across locations.
