About Seba

Seba Thomson is a psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom who focuses on pregnancy and childbirth-related concerns alongside a wider range of emotional difficulties. She works with adults who are navigating stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship worries and parenting strains. Seba also supports people living with ADHD and autism and those coping with birth trauma or postnatal depression.

She trained in psychodynamic approaches and in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). Seba describes her current practice as relational and flexible. That means sessions are shaped around each person's needs and may include discussion, practical strategies, psychoeducation and coaching when useful.

Seba has worked in a perinatal team for a women's charity, supporting people who were pregnant and parents with babies under one year. That experience informs how she talks about pregnancy loss, labour-related difficulties and early parenting challenges. She has also worked with neurodivergent clients since 2016.

Seba is an accredited registered member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society - NCPS - and completed a postgraduate qualification in clinical supervision in 2021. She draws on a mix of approaches to suit individual needs rather than following a single method.

People who come to Seba often want a therapist who listens, validates their experience and helps them make sense of difficult changes. She aims to create a practical, person-centred way of working to help with day-to-day coping and longer-term understanding.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns. It helps people understand fears around connection, abandonment and closeness and can be useful for parenting and relationship worries.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgment and follows what matters most to the client, which can help people feel heard and begin to make changes at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Seba will discuss different methods and together they will choose what feels most helpful for the client's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and may adapt over time as needs change.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact formats offered before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit around caring or work commitments, reduce travel time and make it easier to keep appointments during busy days. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins when time is tight or make it easier to avoid being on camera if that feels difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor online sessions to focus on processing birth experiences, preparing for parenthood, managing postnatal mood, or working through ADHD and autism-related challenges while fitting therapy into everyday life.
