About Esra
Esra Kuscu is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and has six years of experience supporting people through common mental health challenges. Esra speaks English and Turkish and works with clients both locally and internationally.
Esra focuses on everyday struggles such as stress, anxiety, low mood, grief and the fallout from trauma and abuse. She also helps with sleep and eating difficulties, work-related strain, compassion fatigue and issues around self-esteem and anger.
Background and approach
Her practice includes support for people living with ADHD and a wide range of relationship and family concerns handled with individual care. Her approach blends practical, evidence-informed methods with person-led listening. Sessions aim to help people spot unhelpful patterns, try new ways of coping and rebuild a sense of control.
She uses tools from cognitive behavioural work alongside acceptance-based and emotionally focused ideas, and draws on EMDR where trauma processing is needed. Esra works online using video, phone, live chat or messaging so people can choose what fits their day. She offers short tasks and between-session exercises when helpful to support progress between meetings.
People can expect clear goals and regular reviews of what is helping. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire through the site and book a session. Scheduling is arranged according to the therapist's availability and subscription terms.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to a person's goals and try different methods collaboratively to see what helps most. Decisions about using ACT, CBT, EFT or EMDR are made together and reviewed as progress is tracked.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need brief, frequent support between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity when circumstances change.
