Meltem Hussein offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or life change. She helps clients talk through what matters to them and find small, manageable steps forward. Meltem meets people with warmth and respect and uses talking plus creative tools like drawing or writing when helpful.

She describes counselling as a talking approach where the client’s goals guide the work. Sessions focus on understanding what has led to current difficulties and on building the skills and inner resources needed to cope.

Background and approach

Meltem encourages meaning making and helps people reconnect with values and strengths that feel lost. Meltem is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, commonly abbreviated to BACP. She holds a diploma in counselling and maintains ongoing professional development through specialised training.

Across five years of practice she has supported people dealing with depression, anxiety, bereavement, trauma and relationship problems. She has also worked within a bereavement service and in independent practice, bringing that range of experience into sessions. Her approach is integrative and tailored to each person.

She draws on attachment ideas, client-centred listening and cognitive strategies when they suit the client’s needs. Sessions are conversational, straightforward and paced to the individual.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and how past connections shape present feelings and reactions. Online sessions can uncover patterns in relationships and help people practise new ways of relating and expressing needs.

Client-Centred Therapy puts the client's experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the client’s lead to help them make sense of what they are feeling, which can be effective in video or messaging formats where gentle reflection and checking in are central.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behaviours and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It works well online when clients want clear tools and homework tasks to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Meltem will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person’s goals, needs and preferences and will adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a visual connection matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or need brief, on-the-go support. These options help fit counselling into busy lives and make it easier to continue work between sessions.
