About Meltem
Meltem Hussein is a counsellor registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and has five years' experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression and relationship issues, and she lists blended family issues among her focus areas.
She describes counselling as a talking approach where client and counsellor decide what to change together. Sessions aim to help people notice what gets in the way, and to begin using their own resources to cope and move forward. Meltem offers talking work alongside creative options like drawing and writing when that suits the person.
Meltem uses several models rather than one fixed method. She mentions attachment-based, client-centred and cognitive behavioural approaches among others, and chooses how to work based on what each person needs. That means practical conversation, checking what helps, and adjusting the way of working as progress unfolds.
Her background includes a diploma in counselling and individual registration with the BACP. She also has experience working in a bereavement service as well as private practice. Her focus areas range from grief and trauma to parenting, addiction and adjustment after life changes.
Sessions are described as respectful and genuine, with the client steering the process. People who have had therapy before are invited to talk about what did or did not help, so the work can be organised differently if needed.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships, helping people recognise repeated ways of relating and experiment with different responses. This can help with trust issues, loyalties in blended households and communication habits.Client-centred therapy puts the person’s concerns and choices at the centre. The counsellor follows the person’s pace and helps them clarify what matters, which is useful for deciding practical steps in a stepparent role or co-parenting arrangements.
Cognitive behavioural elements look at thoughts and behaviours that keep a problem going and try small, practical changes. This can be useful for managing anxiety, sleep problems or anger with clear steps to try between sessions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options with the client, try ways of working, and agree what feels most useful based on needs, goals and preferences. That decision is made together and can change over time.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can help fit counselling into daily life - for example shorter check-ins at a busy time, not needing travel, or choosing sessions that suit quieter surroundings. Registered or accredited professionals can explain practical arrangements when you book.
