About me
Hey you! I'm Bikem, a psychologist with experience in counseling expats and international students.
I help immigrants struggling with taking up residence in a foreign country and adapting to this new environment. Based on my first-hand experience, I know that being far away from loved ones, as well as changing jobs, schools, and homes can be challenging to handle. There might be a lot of uncertainties that make you feel like you are losing control and getting more anxious. So I am here to listen to your problems and help you build a space where you can find meaning.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
The most critical point of my practice is to build a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients based on a non-judgmental, compassionate, open, and warm attitude. I believe this relationship itself is the beginning of healing.
Also, I am trained in CBT. I mostly use this approach by combining it with Schema Therapy and Mindfulness techniques in my practice. My responsibility is to facilitate your journey by creating an environment where you feel understood, respected, accepted, and sometimes challenged- yet safe because I believe improvement starts when you are challenged.
