About me

I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology at Boğaziçi University, where my interest in the subjective ways people give meaning to their experiences first began to develop. Wanting to deepen this perspective, I pursued a Master’s degree in Cultural Studies at Istanbul Bilgi University, which allowed me to explore the intersections between culture, subjectivity, and psychoanalysis. I later obtained a second Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Bahçeşehir University and began working as a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist. In addition to my clinical work, I have taught as a part-time lecturer in the Department of Psychology at Istanbul Arel University, offering courses on cultural psychology, psychotherapy theories, and Lacanian psychoanalytic theory. I provide individual psychotherapy for adults within a Lacanian psychoanalytic framework, both in person and online. I continue to develop my work through close engagement with various Lacanian institutions.

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.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
Every psychotherapy process is unique, and I adapt my approach to the needs of each individual. I work within a Lacanian psychoanalytic framework, offering a non-judgmental space where you can speak freely and reflect on your personal history as well as your perspective on life choices. In my approach, I listen closely to your experiences, your words, and the themes that emerge in your speech. By attending to these in our sessions, you can begin to uncover the unconscious mechanisms that shape the logic behind your suffering—often expressed through repeating patterns and symptoms in your life. In other words, our aim is for you to hear yourself in a new way, so that you can shift your perspective, strengthen your relationship with yourself, and find the courage to follow your own desire. In Lacanian psychoanalysis, sessions do not have a fixed length. When a crucial moment emerges, it is often considered the right time to conclude the session. This helps create space for you to reflect on what has been said and to form new associations, allowing the process to remain fruitful and engaging.
