I am a Clinical Psychologist and a psychoanalytic psychotherapist based in Istanbul. I am a member of the Istanbul Association for Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, affiliated with the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (EFPP). I provide psychotherapy and professional counseling in both Turkish and English for a wide range of clients, including children, adolescents, adults, and parents.
I work with adults and young professionals, helping them manage stress, career transitions, relationship issues, and personal development. I also support children, adolescents, and families in exploring emotions, improving communication, and strengthening relationships.
I welcome individuals living abroad who are seeking culturally aware support. Working bilingually in Turkish and English, I strive to make therapy and counseling accessible to those balancing different cultural or professional environments. My goal is to help individuals develop insight, resilience, and practical strategies, fostering personal and emotional growth while navigating the complexities of everyday life.
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy
Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach that helps you understand how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence your current feelings, behaviors, and relationships. Through guided exploration in a safe and supportive setting, you can gain insight into yourself, resolve emotional conflicts, and develop healthier ways of coping. The focus is on personal growth, self-understanding, and long-term emotional well-being, not just symptom relief.
