Aysegul Ozen, BACP

Aysegul Ozen is a licensed professional practising in the United Kingdom with three years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, low motivation, self-esteem concerns and life transitions. She brings particular attention to compassion fatigue and specialises in helping clients build coping skills, regain confidence and navigate difficult changes with care and clarity.

Aysegul works from the conviction that each person is the expert of their own story and that existing strengths can be mobilised to overcome current challenges. She frames the work as a collaborative process, offering encouragement and practical support while respecting the courage it takes to pursue a more fulfilling and happier life.

Her background spans more than 15 years in multinational corporations and international roles, and she holds a Bachelor of Science in Food Engineering and a Master of Business Administration. That professional experience informed her move into voluntary work supporting families with young children and mentoring teenagers, where she focused on resilience and self-confidence development.

Outside of her practice, Aysegul enjoys yoga, cycling and nature walks as ways to stay grounded. Her training and lived experience have shaped a thoughtful, empathetic approach to therapy, and she is eager to get to know clients and accompany them through their thoughts, feelings and challenges. Aysegul holds BACP accreditation - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - reflecting her professional standing in the UK.

Evidence-based approaches with online flexibility

Aysegul uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on identifying patterns that contribute to stress and anxiety and then building practical skills to respond differently. One strand of this work helps clients explore and gently challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, developing clearer perspectives and more balanced responses to difficult situations. Another strand emphasises skills-based coping and behavioural strategies to increase motivation, improve mood and enhance everyday functioning when facing life changes, compassion fatigue or relationship strains.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Aysegul works collaboratively with each client to determine which techniques best match their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Aysegul is designed to be accessible and flexible, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, to connect from different locations and to continue work between sessions in ways that suit individual routines and comfort levels.
