Approach

Treatment Approaches
Lacanian psychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore the unconscious mind through the lens of language and desire, focusing on understanding deeper motivations.
PsychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore how their unconscious mind and early experiences affect their current behaviors and feelings.

I am a psychologist specializing in psychoanalytic therapy, providing a reflective and in-depth space for self-exploration. My work focuses on helping individuals uncover unconscious patterns, process emotional conflicts, and develop deeper self-awareness. I assist clients struggling with anxiety, identity issues, relationship dynamics, and life transitions, guiding them toward meaningful insight and personal growth.

I earned my psychology degree from Istanbul University and completed my psychodynamic therapy training under Dr. Görkem Gökçelioğlu. My experience includes working in psychooncology, trauma, grief, and mental health assessments. I have conducted research on psychoanalytic test diagnoses at Bakırköy Psychiatric Hospital. Currently, I offer online therapy sessions to individuals worldwide, helping them navigate their inner world and foster long-term emotional well-being.
