About me
Hi! I’m a psychologist based in Amsterdam, originally from Turkey. I work with people navigating life’s challenges and transitions. In our sessions, we pause to explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns, and help you reconnect with your inner strengths.
I offer a safe, compassionate space where you can reflect, gain insight, and find a kinder way of being with yourself.
I offer sessions in both English and Turkish.
If you’re interested in working together, feel free to reach out and I’d be happy to arrange an initial meeting at a time that works for you.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
Person-centered approachRecommended for those looking for a supportive, non-judgmental space where they can lead the conversation and explore their feelings at their own pace.
Schema therapyRecommended for those who want to break out of negative patterns or "schemas" that they developed early in life and keep repeating.
I take an integrative approach, drawing on methods like Schema Therapy, ACT, and emotion- and compassion-focused techniques. Together, we explore your thoughts, feelings, and patterns, uncover what may no longer serve you, and support you in finding clarity, insight, and new ways of relating to yourself and others.
