Gullu Cicek

Gullu Cicek is a BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) registered psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. She brings four years of focused practice and a background of longer work with families and young people in different settings. Her approach centres on listening carefully and helping people make sense of what they are experiencing.

She pays attention to personal history, family relationships and cultural context when working with clients. That helps identify patterns that affect day-to-day life, relationships and parenting. Sessions aim to make those patterns clearer and more manageable.

Gullu offers a warm, non-judgemental space where people are invited to go at their own pace. She emphasises collaborative conversation and gentle exploration rather than pressure to change quickly. The goal is practical insight and steadier emotional ground.

Many people consult her about stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family problems and self-esteem. Her work also covers issues such as divorce and separation, blended family challenges, communication difficulties and attachment concerns. Gullu helps clients talk through how these issues show up in daily life.

Sessions focus on understanding feelings and responses, and on small, realistic steps clients can try between meetings. She encourages reflection on strengths and methods to reduce unhelpful patterns. This makes therapy useful for people seeking clearer direction and emotional relief.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Gullu uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding how past relationships and family patterns affect present feelings and behaviour. One common strand is attachment-oriented work, which explores how early relationships shape trust, closeness and communication, and can help with relationship difficulties and parenting challenges.

Another common element is short-term problem-focused work that looks at unhelpful patterns in daily life and tests small changes. This approach aims to reduce anxiety, improve communication and support people through transitions such as divorce and separation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gullu will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals and preferences. She will adapt the focus as understanding deepens and priorities change.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking since none are specified in the biography. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and everyday life. They can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited or make it simpler to meet without travel. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often use online work to maintain continuity of care and to explore the same relationship and family issues that are addressed in person.
