Zehra Kirca, NCPS

Zehra Kirca is an integrative counsellor who combines different therapeutic methods to meet each person where they are. With a calm and empathic style, she emphasizes the quality of the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change and growth. Her experience working in education exposed her to a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives, widening her clinical skills and enabling her to support people from many walks of life.

Zehra believes that people are the experts in their own stories and that existing strengths can be used to move through periods of feeling stuck. She frames seeking help as a courageous step toward a more fulfilling and balanced life, and she works without pressure to create space for exploration. Sessions focus on collaboratively unpacking painful feelings and making sense of confusing or distressing life events.

She supports people with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, parenting concerns, and coping with life changes including health-related stress and menopause. Zehra also works with attachment issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness or disability, communication problems, divorce and separation, loneliness, and questions of life purpose and self-love. She holds the NCPS credential, which indicates a recognised professional counselling qualification.

Client-Centered Care and Online Support

Zehra primarily uses client-centered therapy, a collaborative approach that emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and listening. This approach helps people explore their feelings at their own pace and is often useful for anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, and questions about life purpose. She also works as an integrative counsellor, combining techniques from different modalities to address complex needs such as caregiver stress, chronic illness, or attachment difficulties. The integrative approach allows techniques to be adapted to the person and the presenting issue.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Zehra works together with each person to determine what fits best. She tailors sessions to an individual’s goals, preferences, and current challenges, making adjustments as therapy progresses to ensure a good fit.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent support from registered professionals without needing to travel, and they allow therapy to continue through life changes and busy periods.
