About Aysegul

Aysegul Ozen is a counsellor who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people facing stress, anxiety, low motivation and low self-esteem. She offers calm, practical support for parenting concerns, grief, relationship strain and major life changes. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping clients take small, manageable steps forward.

She draws on three years of experience working with people in the United Kingdom. Before moving into mental health she spent over 15 years in multinational corporations and held a Bachelor of Science in Food Engineering and an MBA.

Background and approach

Those roles shaped her practical problem-solving approach and her interest in supporting people through workplace and life transitions. Aysegul began volunteering to support families with young children and mentored teenage students, helping them build resilience and confidence. Those experiences influenced her work with parenting concerns and young adult issues and gave her direct practice in listening, coaching and practical coping strategies.

In sessions she focuses on identifying strengths, setting realistic goals and building routines that reduce stress and boost self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue, isolation and immigration-related adjustment. Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

Outside work she keeps active with yoga, cycling and nature walks, and uses those practices in her own self-care. She encourages clients to find simple, repeatable habits that help ground them between sessions.

Online support

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online support

Aysegul uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and make practical changes. One approach focuses on building coping skills and daily routines to reduce anxiety and low mood; this involves small, practical actions and short skill-building exercises to try between sessions. Another approach centres on exploring life transitions and values to help people clarify priorities and set realistic goals, useful for parenting challenges and career or immigration-related changes.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to understand their goals, try strategies, and adjust the plan over time. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques to use and which to adapt as progress unfolds.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging let people check in between sessions or choose shorter, text-based reflections when that fits their routine. These options make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life and maintain continuity over time.
