Gullu Cicek, BACP

Gullu Cicek is a BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She draws on several years of practice to help people talk about stress, anxiety, relationships, family issues, parenting and self‑esteem in a calm setting.

Her approach pays attention to personal history and family background. She believes cultural and social context matter. Gullu asks about both conscious thoughts and the coping habits people build over time to make sense of present difficulties.

In sessions she aims to offer a compassionate, non‑judgemental space where people can arrive as they are. The pace is set by the client and sessions focus on exploring experiences with curiosity and care. The therapist listens for patterns that may be limiting everyday life and helps people name those patterns.

Gullu works collaboratively with clients to strengthen coping skills and increase self‑awareness. She supports people who want deeper self‑understanding, repair after painful events, or simply a steady place to be heard. Her practice emphasises reflection and gradual change rather than quick fixes.

Her background includes several years working with families, children and young people in different settings. That experience informs how she thinks about family dynamics, attachment and the cycle of behaviours people repeat. Gullu is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Gullu describes her practice as using evidence‑based therapeutic techniques that focus on personal history and relational patterns. One approach she commonly uses is work that looks at attachment and family relationships - this helps people understand how early bonds shape current reactions and relationship habits. Another strand involves practical coping and reflection work that helps people spot repeating behaviours, try small changes and build everyday strategies for stress and anxiety.

Choosing the right way of working is part of therapy. Gullu will discuss different approaches with each person and together they will decide what fits the client's needs, goals and preferences. The aim is a cooperative process where methods are adjusted as understanding grows.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm available session types before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check‑ins when needed. It can also help people keep continuity of care when schedules change, while the therapist and client work out the best practical arrangements for their sessions.
