Selen Atasoy

BACP registered counsellor in private practice and a neuroscientist.

BACP-registered counsellor in private practice and neuroscientist. After working as a neuroscientist for over a decade researching different states of consciousness, I trained as a Gestalt counsellor at the Gestalt Centre London and attended various workshops in Jungian dream analysis and body-oriented, mindfulness-based energy therapy. In my counselling practice, I use an eclectic approach, integrating all these modalities and my neuroscientific knowledge within a client-centred and relational therapeutic framework.

My neuroscientific research focuses on exploring brain dynamics in consciousness, sleep, meditation, and psychedelic states, as well as in the developing brain, by analysing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data within the mathematical framework of harmonic waves—a phenomenon ubiquitous in nature.

I obtained a Ph.D. in medical imaging jointly from the Technical University of Munich and Imperial College London. After my Ph.D., I held postdoctoral research positions at the School of Psychology, University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney; the Center for Brain and Cognition, Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF), Barcelona; the Centre for Psychedelic Research, Imperial College London; and the Centre for Eudaimonia and Human Flourishing, University of Oxford.
