About Seba

Seba Thomson is a psychotherapist registered with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and has worked in clinical practice for 10 years. She sees adults in the United Kingdom and works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting, depression, addictions, relationships, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, coping with life changes and ADHD. Seba also notes experience with attachment and abandonment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, and a range of family-related problems.

Her style draws on psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural foundations, but she describes her day-to-day way of working as relational and flexible. That means sessions focus on the connection between client and therapist and adapt to what helps each person most. She combines talking therapy with psychoeducation and coaching when useful.

Seba has worked in perinatal services and with neurodivergent clients since 2016. That background includes support around pregnancy, postnatal depression, loss of baby, birth trauma and early parenting concerns. She also provides supervision to other therapists and completed a postgraduate qualification in clinical supervision in 2021.

In practice she often supports people exploring diagnosis for ADHD or autism, or those who have had assessments and want help processing the result. She aims to offer a neuro-affirmative approach that recognises the ways neurodivergence shapes everyday life.

People who come for sessions can expect a mix of structured techniques and open reflective work. Seba adjusts methods based on what the client needs at the time, and she discusses options together rather than imposing a single style.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships. It looks at how past connections shape current feelings and reactions, and can help when relationships leave someone feeling unsafe, abandoned or stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions. It often uses practical exercises and behavioural experiments to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and change unhelpful patterns.

Seba treats finding the right approach as a collaborative task. She will talk with the client about goals and preferences, try methods that suit their situation, and adapt the plan as progress is reviewed. The client and therapist decide together what feels most helpful rather than committing to one model from the start.

Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around study, shifts, or busy schedules. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to include psychoeducation materials or homework between meetings. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to help therapy fit everyday life without changing what is discussed in sessions.
