About Gullu

Gullu Cicek works on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, parenting and self-esteem through talking, reflection and understanding of life context. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years' experience as a counsellor.

Gullu begins by looking at a person’s history and family patterns to understand how they shape everyday reactions. She pays attention to cultural and social background and to both conscious thoughts and less obvious coping strategies. Sessions involve talking things through, noticing patterns and trying out different ways of responding in day-to-day life.

She describes the work as collaborative. A client can expect time to reflect on past experiences and present difficulties. The emphasis is on understanding how relationships and family dynamics influence current feelings and choices. Practical suggestions may be discussed alongside reflective conversation.

Gullu also focuses on a number of specific concerns linked to family life and relationships. These include fertility issues, divorce and separation, blended family issues and communication or control problems. She also notes attention to attachment-related difficulties and issues such as codependency and dependent personality patterns.

Additional areas she lists include ageing and geriatric issues, antisocial personality, domestic violence, emptiness and family of origin problems. These are explored in sessions with reference to each person's background and circumstances.

Sessions are offered in English and Turkish. Gullu works from the United Kingdom and uses a subscription payment model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules the first session via the Talk to a counsellor online button.

How therapeutic approaches inform online work

Gullu uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding relationships and personal patterns. One common approach looks at attachment and how early relationship patterns affect adult behaviour; this helps when communication, trust or connection feel difficult. Another approach examines family of origin and current family dynamics to see how roles and expectations shape stress and relationship problems; this can help with issues such as divorce, blended family concerns and parenting challenges.

Finding the right method is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different approaches and decide together which fits the client's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process, and methods can be adjusted as the work progresses.

Practical benefits of working online are that sessions can fit more easily around daily life and appointments can be scheduled without travel. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins, avoid camera use when preferred, or fit a session into a lunch break depending on the agreed format.
