About Hayriye
Hayriye Mut is a counsellor and a member of the BACP with five years' experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulty, trauma and abuse, and low mood. Sessions are provided in English and Turkish for people living in the United Kingdom.
She focuses on helping people talk through what is getting in the way of day-to-day life. That can include sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem or wider issues such as bipolar symptoms and coping with life changes. She also supports people facing grief, intimacy-related worries, career concerns and compassion fatigue.
Her way of working draws on attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioural techniques and psychodynamic thinking. In practice this means noticing patterns in relationships, trying out ways of thinking and behaving that reduce distress, and looking at past experiences that shape current feelings. Trauma-focused approaches are used when past harm needs direct attention.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Clients can expect time to describe their situation, to set small goals and to try simple techniques between sessions. The counsellor will discuss what helps most and adjust the pace to suit the person.
Hayriye aims to make the process straightforward. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
She does not take international clients. If someone is unsure about session options they are advised to confirm the current formats before booking.
How attachment, CBT and trauma-focused work can be used online
Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how they affect how someone feels now. This can help with relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and attachment issues by noticing repeated patterns and trying different ways of responding. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. It often involves trying practical strategies and small experiments to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and manage mood. Trauma-focused work addresses memories and reactions from past harm and uses structured methods to reduce ongoing distress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will talk through goals, try ideas in early sessions and adjust methods to fit what feels most useful. Clients take an active role in deciding which techniques to keep and which to change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel. They can allow shorter check-ins, make attendance quicker when days are busy, and remove travel time. The counsellor will explain practical arrangements when you book and help find a way of working that fits everyday life.
