About me
I am a licensed psychologist based in Germany with over three years of clinical experience supporting children and families through developmental challenges, intergenerational trauma, and cultural transitions. My work is grounded in both therapeutic practice and academic research, with a specialization in developmental psychology and early intervention.
I support children experiencing emotional and behavioral difficulties, parents navigating developmental delays, parenting stress, or multicultural family dynamics, and families seeking to rebuild communication and resilience.
My therapeutic approach integrates evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Play Therapy, always tailored to each child’s and family's unique needs. I offer a warm, safe, and judgment-free space where healing begins with truly being heard.
I provide sessions in English and Turkish, and I have experience working with international families across Europe. Whether you are facing transitions, trauma, or developmental concerns, I am here to support you in achieving meaningful and lasting change.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
Family therapyRecommended for families who want to resolve conflicts, improve communication, and understand each other better within the family dynamic.
My therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in developmental psychology. I create a safe and supportive environment where children feel heard and understood, and where parents feel empowered in their caregiving roles. I primarily use evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Play Therapy, tailored to each child’s age, needs, and emotional world.
I work with children experiencing emotional or behavioral challenges and help families strengthen communication, attachment, and resilience. I also support parents in navigating developmental delays, parenting stress, or cross-cultural family dynamics. My sessions are structured yet flexible, designed to foster trust, self-regulation, and lasting growth.
I offer therapy in English and Turkish, and I have experience working with diverse families across Europe. My goal is to support each child and parent in discovering their strengths and building healthy, connected relationships.
