About me
I completed my undergraduate and graduate studies in philosophy at Boğaziçi University. While writing my master’s thesis, I developed an interest in psychoanalysis leading me to decide to pursue further career as a psychologist. After studying psychology at Istanbul Bilgi University, I completed my master's degree in clinical and health psychology at the Instituto Superior de Estudios Psicologicos de Barcelona.
I took courses in France and Spain. I have been working with existential analysis and psychodynamic therapies. I have been running for 25 years. I practice yoga for 10 years. I am very fond of animals.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
Existential analysisRecommended for those who are searching for deeper meaning in life or are struggling with big questions about existence, freedom, and purpose.
Humanistic psychologyRecommended for those looking for a therapy that emphasizes personal growth and self-fulfillment, focusing on becoming your best self in a positive, non-judgmental space.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
I enjoy working with existentialist and psychodynamic approaches. In addition to long-term existential, psychodynamic therapies, I also engage in brief solution-focused work using ACT ( Acceptation and Commitment Therapy).
We create a roadmap together based on each client’s needs and priorities. You bring whatever you want to our sessions and let’s discover what unfolds afterward. Rather than battling with stress and difficulties we will discuss the underlying causes. Over time, we will experience transformation.
