Hasan Kurtarici, BACP, NCPS

Hasan Kurtarici is a therapist based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and depression, as well as those navigating LGBTQ+ related experiences. He combines a compassionate, collaborative stance with practical guidance to help people build confidence, motivation and new ways of coping with life’s challenges.

Hasan has particular experience working with Deaf and hard of hearing individuals, drawing on his background as a British Sign Language interpreter in the UK to offer informed and respectful support for sensory loss and communication differences. He works with a wide range of concerns including abandonment and attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, relationship and communication problems, and aspects of alternative sexual culture such as BDSM and kink.

Hasan believes that each person is the expert in their own story and that resilience and inner strengths are central to change. His role is to walk alongside people as they explore their experiences, uncover core beliefs and develop practical strategies for growth. He uses Transactional Analysis - a method for examining life scripts, communication patterns and core beliefs - as a foundation for this work. Hasan also draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to tailor support to each individual.

He holds professional registrations BACP and NCPS, which indicate adherence to recognised practice standards. Hasan publishes blogs on his website and offers therapy in English and Turkish.

Transactional Analysis and tailored online therapy approaches

Transactional Analysis is a core part of Hasan's practice. It helps people understand the scripts and communication patterns that shape their relationships and self-view, making it easier to identify unhelpful beliefs and try out different ways of relating. Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are also used to provide structured, practical tools for managing emotions and improving everyday functioning - these approaches focus on skills and strategies that have been shown to help with stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Hasan works with each person to understand their goals, preferences and life context, and adapts methods so the work feels relevant and manageable. Together they review what is or is not helping and adjust the focus over time to find the best fit.

Online therapy with Hasan is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, which provides flexibility for different schedules and communication needs. This range of options can make it easier to access regular support from registered professionals whether someone is balancing work, caregiving or mobility challenges, and supports ongoing progress in a way that suits the individual.
