Hayriye Mut, BACP

Hayriye Mut is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship difficulties and trauma. She speaks English and Turkish and aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them. Hayriye uses a straightforward style that focuses on practical steps as well as understanding feelings.

Hayriye holds BACP, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy accreditation listed in her profile. She has five years of experience working with a range of concerns including depression, grief, anger, intimacy-related issues and sleep problems. Her background also covers ADHD, bipolar mood concerns and challenges related to chronic illness or caregiving stress.

Her approach draws on attachment-based work to look at patterns in relationships and emotional bonds. She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and develop coping strategies. When trauma is central, she applies trauma-focused methods alongside psychodynamic ideas about past experiences and current feelings.

Sessions with Hayriye aim to balance emotional understanding and practical change. She helps people identify small steps they can try between meetings and checks progress together. The overall goal is to help people feel more able to manage everyday life and close relationships.

Hayriye also lists intimacy-related issues and sexual dysfunction among her focus areas. If you think her approach might fit, use the platform controls to complete the short matching questionnaire and arrange a first appointment.

Approach-focused online counselling and practical support

Hayriye uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional reactions. This approach helps when people notice repeating patterns in how they connect, cope or respond to stress and intimacy issues.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT-style work helps with anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties and developing day-to-day coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Hayriye will talk with clients about goals and preferences and adapt methods to suit those needs. This is a collaborative process where the therapist and client review what is helpful and change course if needed.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available formats before booking as they are not listed here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also be useful for people managing chronic illness, caregiving responsibilities or for whom leaving home is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor session length and pacing to match everyday schedules and goals.
