Seda Albay, MA, BSc, Dip. Clinical Supervisor

Founding Director at Your Therapy Lounge.

As a dedicated Psychotherapist and Counsellor with a Master’s degree in Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling, I am committed to upholding the highest standards of ethical practice, adhering to the guidelines set forth by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

With a solid foundation in Psychology and a specialised training in Clinical Supervision, I have been actively involved in the field for over 5 years as a Psychotherapist and 2 years as a supervisor. My approach is integrative, drawing from various therapeutic modalities to tailor therapy to meet the unique needs to each individual client.

Before training as a therapist, I worked with adolescents with special educational needs for 3 years. Through this experience I have learnt the importance of non-verbal communication. Witnessing these individuals’ challenges and triumphs ignited a passion within me to support others in navigating their own emotional and mental health journeys. I recognised the profound impact that therapy can have on individuals’ lives and decided to pursue a career as a therapist to provide compassionate and empowering support to those in need. My experience with individuals with special needs continues to shape my approach as a therapist fostering a deep sense of empathy, understanding, and dedication to helping others overcome obstacles and thrive.

I believe in creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgement. My goal is to empower clients to navigate life’s challenges, gain insight into their emotions, and work towards positive change and personal growth.

In my free time I like to spend time with my friends and family, read, go to the theatre and travel. I am very interested in experiencing different cultures, history, food and architecture in different countries.
