Hello and welcome to my profile! My name is Leyla and I'm delighted to be here as a part of this online therapist community. With my background in clinical psychology and expertise in trauma treatment, I'm passionate about supporting individuals through their healing journeys.
Having lived abroad for several years, including six in Poland and half a year in Ireland, I understand firsthand the challenges and complexities that come with being an immigrant and an expat. This unique experience has helped me develop a deep empathy and appreciation for the struggles that individuals in similar situations face.
I love hiking, being in the nature, taking small pauses to appreciate life.
In my practice, I specialize in trauma treatment utilizing evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Schematherapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. I believe in the power of these approaches to help individuals overcome their past traumas and create meaningful and empowering lives.
Creating a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients is of utmost importance to me. I take a collaborative and client-centered approach to therapy, tailoring my techniques and interventions to meet each individual's specific needs. By working together, we can explore your past experiences, develop new coping strategies, and foster a sense of resilience and empowerment.
