Find your therapist

I am integrative counsellor with an emphasis in humanistic approach but drawing from different therapeutic styles.

My focus is in creating a positive climate with the client of empathy and trust, to explore the issues that are interfering with your wellbeing. To understand the client’s circumstances and perspective and for the client to clarify how they feel/think. I then aim to intervene on the patterns that are causing the distress, to expand perspective and in collaboration bring new patterns that will improve the person’s distress and wellbeing.

I have studies and worked in Spain, USA and UK, therefore I also offer sessions and Spanish and therapy related to intercultural/expat difficulties.

Other areas of interest/experience include anxiety, depression, relationships, self-esteem and past trauma.

Difficult times with the right help and clarification are an opportunity for growth and newfound wellbeing. My aim is to make this process rewarding for you.

I am a psychotherapist working for the NHS. I know how difficult it must be searching through the profiles trying to find the right therapist. Making the decision to enter into therapy is a brave one and sometimes it can be difficult. Clients have said I am warm, welcoming and approachable and I am able to put them at ease.

As a psychotherapist,  I help you explore and understand patterns in your thinking and in relationships with others and with yourself  that may be causing you pain or making you feel stuck. I help you find your own solutions instead of giving you advice. I believe if you are given a safe space to be heard you will find your own healing.

I am also trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and specialise in helping people who struggle with anxiety, depression and obsessive and compulsive behaviours to reduce symptoms quickly and help you feel more in control. I also combine mindfulness and relaxation techniques to help you reduce and manage stress.

****To help as many people as possible during this pandemic I am offering a 50% reduction on my hourly rate for the next three months for Skype Therapy during this difficult time******

Counselling can help you with those difficult times in life when you need to resolve a problem which is stopping you from achieving your personal best.

I believe that the relationship between therapist and client can be a vehicle for growth.

Together, we can explore how events of the past, often from childhood, have contributed to your current situation. This process will promote emotional growth at your own pace. This will also help you to gain greater self-awareness, increase your esteem and help you to understand the relationship with yourself and others. This process will create a sense of inner peace and enable you to understand your emotions and gain more self-identify.

Hello, as you are looking at my profile, I am guessing that you are feeling in need of help, you may feel that you can’t cope, things are spiralling, you are drowning. Perhaps you feel that you are the only one to feel like this and you will never feel ‘normal’ again. I understand how awful those feelings are and I can help you to regain control of your feelings and your life, see things clearly and to make better choices for a better future and fulfil your potential
I am an established very experienced Counsellor, over 10000 face to face sessions with clients over 14 years. I offer counselling to individuals and couples face to face in Stowmarket or online (webcam, email or text) and have been awarded Senior Accreditation status by British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
I also offer Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing which is helpful for all trauma, anxieties, phobias and can really help if you are stuck in negative thought cycles.

I offer long and short term work for Private or Corporate Clients and am an Approved Adoption Counsellor and my registration with Link Barnardo’s enables me to offer counselling for all issues connected to adoption.

I offer a counselling relationship within which you feel safe and can explore whatever is causing you distress. With warmth, empathy, humour and respect, I will help you to discover ways of living more resourcefully and authentically, and will try to understand you and your experiences without being in any way judgemental.

I believe people seek therapy because they want to make a change in their lives. This can be scary, but having felt overwhelmed and anxious at times myself, I hope to be able to offer a supportive, calm, safe environment for you to explore your issues and work towards the best solution for you.

I am a CBT counsellor, CBT is excellent at getting to the root of the clients current issues and uncovering in real time what is going on. It works on the notion that we can change our thoughts and feelings by challenging and changing certain unhealthy beliefs into healthy flexible ones which are more inline with reality. It’s an empowering modality which puts the client back into the driving seat of their life.

I work both privately and for a clinic in London. I have experience working across a number of different issues including anxiety, depression, OCD, insomnia and addictions.

Due to Covid19 I will be offering sessions via Zoom throughout this difficult period.

Hello there dear reader, my name is Hal, short for Haldun Hüseyin Musazlioglu (just call me Hal, everyone does).

When people ask me how I got into psychotherapy, I usually say it got to me first:
I was 12 years old when I first had to see a therapist. People near me (ironically not my parents) noted already back then my permanent gloomy and melancholic outlook on life – even this in Germany where I was born, by all means not a country known for its ‘cheerio!’ attitude. Years later, I was diagnosed with dysthymic depression and finally had to be put on anti-depressants aged 30 after a preceding psychotic episode (my way of a mid-life crisis: not blowing a lot of money, but instead losing gradually touch with reality). It was also around this time when my aunt in Turkey shared that the entire matrilineal side of our family had prolonged battles with depression. Thanks, mum.

On top of this, our Muslim upbringing didn’t aid much to my family’s mental health. It also doesn’t do much for you if you realise you’re gay, and you eventually need to come out. As I had to. And did. My mum cried for three months, realised eventually her son will never be the imagined prim solicitor/doctor with wife and kids, so reverted instead to hate my tattoos.

By age 19, I had properly felt sick and tired of that kind of constrained upbringing, also of the Germans, so moved to London (though frankly, now I feel like that with the English, but this is for a different forum…)

After several more years bumbling through various underpaid customer service jobs,  I studied Art & Design/more or less useful degrees (Furniture Design. Yes, seriously.) and tried myself out among other things as a film extra and a Stand-up comedian (memorably, I died in a North-London pub in front of an audience that consisted of my ex-boyfriend and Russell Brand), I looked finally into how I could use my own experiences with depression, inter-cultural clashes, emerging kink-sexualities, an HIV+ status and a fanatical liking for Heavy Metal, so I eventually studied counselling.

By 2012 I started my counselling studies and after around 5 years, including one failed year of CBT (blowing finally a lot of money after all), I decided to stick with the humanistic school of therapy of Person-Centred counselling, developed by Carl Rogers. From the 1940ies on, already being a bit of a hippie and believing that everyone is innately ‘good’, he decided to emphasise the non-hierarchical alliance between client and therapist, while maintaining an “unconditional positive regard”.

And I soon found it worked for me – and for my other job, which is in mental health rehabilitation.

Then in August 2019, I also started my MSc degree in Psychology with Arden University. My plan after I finish in around three years’ time, is to fall into a very relaxing coma.

Until then, I genuinely find a lot of fulfilment through my work, so please don’t hesitate to ask me questions about whatever life has thrown at you.

Das alles übrigens gerne auch auf deutsch!  ; )
