Background and approach

That can mean small behaviour changes, problem-solving, or looking at how past experiences shape current difficulties. Hayriye draws on several therapeutic approaches to tailor the work to each person. Cognitive behavioural techniques can help identify unhelpful thinking and build coping strategies.

Attachment-based ideas are used to examine patterns in relationships and emotional responses. She also uses psychodynamic and trauma-focused methods when they seem helpful, paying attention to how past events affect present day life. The aim is to combine practical tools with deeper understanding so clients gain clarity and improved coping.

People come for help with a wide range of concerns including addictions, relationship problems, grief, sleep difficulties, parenting strain, mood issues and career stress. Hayriye supports each person at their own pace and helps set realistic goals for change.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and responses. Online sessions use conversation to notice recurring patterns and to practise different ways of relating, which can help with intimacy, trust and emotional regulation.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioural experiments. In online meetings this often becomes structured homework, short experiments between sessions and clear steps to reduce anxiety or improve sleep.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try first. This is a collaborative plan that can change as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical benefits such as fitting sessions around work or family life. Video calls allow visual connection and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier for quick check-ins. Live chat or text messaging can suit people who prefer writing or need brief, frequent support. Registered or accredited professionals use these formats to make therapy more flexible and accessible.
