Duhan Seherli, BACP

Duhan Seherli is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and the effects of trauma and abuse. He also supports those struggling with depression, self-esteem, addiction and intimacy-related worries. He speaks English and Turkish and has five years of professional experience under his BACP credential.

He creates a calm space where people can talk honestly about difficult feelings. Sessions focus on listening first, then making small, practical steps that fit everyday life. He avoids judgement and aims to help people feel understood before exploring change.

His approach draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. He also uses client-centred methods that keep the person’s priorities central. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when helpful to break unhelpful thinking and behaviour cycles.

Seherli often blends these ways of working to suit each person. Therapy may include reflecting on relationships, noticing thoughts and testing new responses, and working through painful memories at a steady pace. The aim is to build clearer choices, steadier emotions and better day-to-day coping.

He encourages people to take the first step even when it feels hard. Practical guidance and simple exercises are offered between sessions when useful. To begin, clients use the platform questionnaire and then schedule sessions that fit their routine.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect feelings and behaviour now. Online conversations can help name those patterns and try different ways of relating. Client-centred therapy keeps the person's experience at the heart of sessions, using open listening and reflection so people feel heard and can choose the changes they want. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small practical experiments to shift mood and behaviour.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences together and suggest which ways of working might suit the issue and the person. This is a collaborative decision and can change over time as progress is reviewed.

Confirm current session options before booking because the biography does not list formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes accessing someone who speaks your language or has relevant experience easier from different locations. The focus remains on finding helpful steps you can use between sessions and on shaping work to fit everyday life.
