About Selim

BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' experience working with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Selim Guzel uses a person-centred approach as the core of his practice and offers creative methods alongside talking therapy.

Selim draws on Client-Centred Therapy and wider humanistic influences in his work. Sessions focus on listening without judgement and supporting each person to make their own choices. He also integrates creative exercises when helpful, such as music, writing, drawing or movement, to help express feelings that are hard to put into words.

He has worked with people from a range of backgrounds and pays attention to cultural and identity factors. Topics he commonly addresses include family of origin issues, fatherhood concerns, immigration-related stress, loneliness and struggles with life purpose. He also supports work around guilt, shame, forgiveness and social anxiety.

Selim describes his style as non-directive and respectful of personal autonomy. He aims to avoid a directive expert stance and prefers to collaborate with each person on their goals. Creative art activities are offered as optional ways to explore emotion rather than as required tasks.

Practical arrangements use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. International clients are accepted and sessions are conducted in English. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment via the online therapy options button.

How Client-Centred work and creative methods fit online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and supporting people to make their own choices. Online sessions with this approach involve the therapist offering space to talk and reflect while the client leads the focus. This method can help with anxiety, grief, relationship concerns and self-esteem issues.

Creative methods are offered as optional tools to express emotion when words are hard to find. Examples include using music or lyrics, storytelling and writing, simple drawing or movement exercises. These activities are used to open up feelings and then discussed in the session to gain clarity and perspective.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and agree a way of working together. That collaboration includes deciding whether creative exercises will be used and how sessions will be structured.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy lives by removing travel time and making it easier to schedule short or regular appointments. Online work can also make it simpler to include creative tasks between meetings and to reflect on them during sessions.
