Sevgi Tekin

I am a Child and Adolescent Psychotherapeutic Counsellor offering individual therapy to children, adolescents, and young adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and behavioural difficulties, including anxiety, depression, bereavement, self-harm, and relationship difficulties.

I provide a safe, warm, and confidential space in which children and young people can explore and express their emotions, thoughts, and experiences—particularly those that may feel confusing or distressing. I work at each client’s pace, with sensitivity to their developmental stage and individual circumstances.

My therapeutic approach is integrative, meaning I draw on a range of therapeutic models and techniques tailored to the needs of each young person. I am experienced in using creative resources, including play and the arts, to support communication with children and young people.

I hold a Master’s degree in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapeutic Counselling from the University of Cambridge and have over ten years’ experience working with children and young people across a variety of settings. These include primary and secondary schools in Cambridge and London, as well as a charity supporting children affected by traumatic experiences.

Prior to training as a counsellor, I gained extensive experience in the voluntary and community sectors, working with adults, parents, and children from diverse backgrounds. These roles involved offering support and guidance to individuals navigating complex life circumstances.

I am based in Cambridge city centre.
