Background and approach

She also has experience around pregnancy, birth trauma, loss of baby and early parenting concerns from her work with a women's charity. Her formal credential is NCPS, which denotes registration with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society. She also completed a postgraduate qualification in clinical supervision in 2021 and offers supervision to other therapists.

These qualifications sit alongside a background in psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural approaches. In session Seba uses a relational, individualised way of working. She draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural tools when helpful.

She also uses psychoeducation and coaching techniques to build practical coping skills and clearer self-understanding. People often come to Seba when thinking about diagnosis for ADHD or autism, or after assessment when they need support to understand and manage the diagnosis. She aims to validate and hear clients while helping them find workable steps forward.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online work

Attachment-based work focuses on relationships and how past patterns affect current feelings and reactions. Online sessions let people reflect on relationship patterns and practice new ways of connecting in everyday life. Client-centred therapy emphasises listening and building a strong therapeutic relationship through empathy and acceptance. That plain, person-focused stance fits well with video or phone sessions where the aim is to be heard and understood. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) teaches specific skills to manage thinking and behaviour, such as sleep routines or anxiety tools. CBT tasks and worksheets can be used in sessions and between appointments when working remotely.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person's goals, needs and preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted over time, combining talking, practical strategies and psychoeducation as required.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging provide ongoing contact, brief reflections or written homework between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family life while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
