About Hayriye

Hayriye Mut is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression and a range of family and life-change concerns, including blended family issues. Sessions are offered in English and Turkish. She does not accept international clients.

Clients can expect straightforward conversations about what is causing strain and what practical steps might help. She uses talking and reflective exercises to identify patterns that keep problems going. Work can include looking at past experiences that shape current reactions and testing new ways of responding to difficult situations.

Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas and psychodynamic thinking to look at how early relationships affect present-day behaviour. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques are used for managing symptoms such as anxiety, low mood or sleep problems. Trauma-focused work is used when painful events need careful attention.

Hayriye helps people talking about parenting pressures, grief, intimacy and communication problems. She also supports those coping with chronic illness, caregiving strain, ADHD-related challenges, and issues around abandonment and self-esteem. Sessions aim to be clear and practical rather than theoretical.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions run via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. This process sets out what to focus on and how the work will proceed.

Therapeutic approaches used online and what they address

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns. It is useful for people who notice repeating trust or closeness problems and for those navigating loyalty or attachment conflicts in a blended household.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties and anger by teaching ways to test and change daily routines and thinking patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be a shared decision. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt the methods as needed over time.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life, for example by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or offering a choice about using video or audio depending on comfort and bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals can use different formats, so ask which ones Hayriye offers when you arrange your first meeting.
