About me
"What you seek is seeking you." - Rumi
Welcome. My name is Hayriye (Hayrish). I am an accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist.
Whether you are going through an anxious period of your life or struggling to cope day to day alone can be very isolating and painful place. My aim is to help you put a short term and long term plan together to steer through those difficulties so you can manage your life.
How therapy can help?
I work creatively with body and mind with EMDR skills to track and relief repressed emotions in the body. Our body displays unexpressed emotions/trauma somatically in different parts of the body to give us warning signals such as anxiety, IBS, migraine, backache, breathing difficulties etc so we can pay attention.
Therapy can offer a new perspective, the opportunity for personal growth and in-depth self-discovery into difficult thoughts, feelings, and belief systems that we may not be aware of or may find too complicated to discuss with loved ones. My role as a therapist is to help you understand yourself better. In the sessions I create a safe, confidential and non-judgemental setting in which you can explore and freely express your current and past difficulties that may be causing feelings of ‘stuck-ness’ or difficulty to move forward in your life. As a therapist, one of my main priorities is to strengthen your ability to make healthy decisions and become an autonomous individual.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a Masters in Counselling and Psychotherapy in Transactional Analysis from Metanoia Institute and Middlesex University. I am MBACP (Accred) and am accredited by UKCP.
I offer both short-term and long-term therapy in English and Turkish. I work face to face and online via Zoom / Skype / FaceTime.
I have extensive experience working with a range of complex mental health issues including depression, trauma, anxiety, racial trauma, and identity issues, enabling me to work with people from a wide range of backgrounds.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

My Approach
In my sessions, I aim to be creative in my approach; I use metaphors and imagination to explore presenting issues and difficulties whether it is short-term solution focused or longer-term psychotherapy. I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) skills to work with trauma when the individual ready to process their trauma.
My primary work from a relational perspective using TA puts emphasis on the in-depth exploration of unconscious dynamics both out there in the world and in the sessions between us – this enables deeper processes for change to take place. The aim of our work together is to develop the full capacity for autonomy which will allow you to deal with the events life throws at you; I aim to help you live a better, more fulfilled life.
