About Duhan
Duhan Seherli is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing anxiety, stress, depression and trauma. He also helps with relationship concerns, self-esteem and grief. He works with a wide range of life issues including addiction, sleep and eating problems, ADHD and career pressures.
He aims to make the first step easier. Sessions are framed so people can name what matters to them. Duhan encourages clear, plain talk and practical next steps rather than jargon.
Background and approach
He wants clients to feel heard and understood as they begin to make changes. In session he draws on client-centred principles that focus on the person's experience and pace. He also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships influence current worries.
Cognitive approaches are used when people want to test thoughts and try new coping strategies. Duhan has five years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is listed here as supplied. He offers help in English and Turkish and is open to working with people from different countries.
He recognises that taking the first step can be hard and aims to make the process straightforward. Outside sessions he keeps things simple and grounded. He favours short, practical exercises and gradual goals people can manage between meetings.
The approach is collaborative - clients set the priorities and Duhan adapts methods to fit their needs and pace. His style is calm and direct, focused on helping people move from feeling stuck to feeling more able to cope. He often uses talking, reflection and small behavioural steps to support change.
How counselling approaches work online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape feelings and expectations now. Online sessions can use this to explore patterns in current relationships and help people try new ways of relating. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what a person says. It is useful for building a steady space to talk things through and to set personal goals. Cognitive behavioural techniques help people notice and test thoughts and behaviours, and then try small experiments that can reduce anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together they will try methods that fit the person's needs. Sessions can adapt over time so the approach changes as progress is made, and feedback is encouraged at every step.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues help the conversation. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging can suit brief reflections, on-the-day support or when writing feels easier. These options offer flexibility so people can fit therapy around work, travel or caring responsibilities.
