About me
I am an Italian - Turkish Clinical Psychologist, currently residing and working in Istanbul. Through my academic journey in The Netherlands, I had the opportunity to ground myself in solution focused, empirical approaches and put them into action in international settings. Now, as I pursue the Masterson technique, I aim to integrate psychoanalytical theory focusing on depth whilst considering the here and now.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
PsychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore how their unconscious mind and early experiences affect their current behaviors and feelings.
As a Clinical Psychologist, I had the privilege of completing both my BSc and MSc in Psychology in The Netherlands, immersing myself in the empirical and solution-oriented approaches to psychology. While I deeply value the effectiveness of techniques and planned interventions, I recognize that the transformative journey within a therapeutic alliance goes beyond these aspects.
In my practice, I strive to bear witness to each individual's healing journey with an open-minded and empathic presence. I believe in creating a space that allows for the exploration of one's own answers. During these moments, I draw upon my training in the Masterson technique, a relational psychoanalytical approach for long-term therapy.
