About Selim
Selim Guzel offers a warm, person-centred approach to counselling grounded in Client-Centred Therapy. He creates a calm space where people can be heard without judgement. Selim aims to support clients who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief and low self-esteem.
He draws on three years of experience working with people from diverse backgrounds. His practice emphasises empathy, genuineness and respect for each person’s autonomy. Sessions focus on understanding the person’s experience and helping them find their own way forward rather than following a fixed protocol.
Selim also pays close attention to cultural context and the challenges of belonging. He can help people dealing with immigration issues, prejudice and discrimination, and other multicultural concerns that affect identity and self-worth. Fatherhood issues and family of origin concerns are also within his areas of focus.
Creative methods may be offered as optional tools. These include using music, storytelling, drawing, movement and poetry to access feelings that are hard to put into words. Such activities are used to deepen understanding and encourage new ways of expressing emotional material.
Selim holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as his professional credential. He works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. To begin, clients follow the Start Therapy process on the site and complete a short matching questionnaire.
How a client-centred approach works for online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person and their experience at the centre of the work. It relies on empathic listening, acceptance and a non-directive stance so the client can explore feelings and make choices at their own pace. This approach often helps with anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns and questions about identity.Selim also uses creative methods as optional ways to express feelings. These might include music, writing, drawing or movement to help people access emotions that are hard to name. These creative tools are used alongside the person-centred listening, not as a requirement.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and try different ways of working until a good fit is found. Sessions are shaped around what the person needs rather than a single fixed method.
Session formats are not specified in the provided profile, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to maintain continuity if someone moves or travels, while still focusing on the same aims as face-to-face work.
